Roman Life, the Army and Everyday Rome

Mary Beard and Michael Scott underground, into the sewers, aqueducts and catacombs, with laser scanning. Ninety minutes on the plumbing, the water supply and the burial system that kept a million people alive.

Roman politics and battles as animated coloured blocks. It should not work and it is the clearest explanation of the constitution and of tactical manoeuvre that exists in any medium.

Garrett Ryan has a doctorate in ancient history and makes short, precise videos answering the questions people actually have: what it smelled like, what it cost, what happened if you got ill.

Animated history at the production level of a broadcast documentary, with maps that move the way campaigns actually moved. The Roman episodes are a fraction of the channel and the fraction to start with.

Primary sources read aloud, unabridged, with the images that go with them. No presenter between you and the text. Hearing a Roman letter home in full does something no summary manages.

The companion to Ancient Warfare magazine and the deepest military coverage anywhere: panel format, working specialists, and an hour on the logistics of one campaign when that is what it takes. Come to it once you know the outline.

A hundred-plus hours on figures who never make the emperor lists, reaching deep into the Byzantine centuries where most Rome shows stop. Coverage is the value here.

Colin Elliott is a Roman historian at Indiana and this is the imperial centuries told straight and at length. The political intrigue is handled like drama without the facts being bent to fit.

Forty-two hours on the Republic turning into a monarchy, told by two hosts working forward through it without skipping the dull decades.

Twelve and a half hours on the city itself, foundation to 1453, told as the biography of a place while the emperors come and go through it.

Agnes Crawford is a licensed guide in Rome, and this is the city itself: what is standing, who paid for it, what happened where you are standing. Twenty short episodes to have in your ears while walking it.

Beard on what held the empire together across four hours, which is a better question than how it fell and gets asked far less often.

Part of SandRhomanHistory

What happened in Britain after 410, following the archaeology where the written sources stop.

Beard's three parts on ordinary Romans, read off their tombstones. The corrective to every documentary that is only about emperors.

Alastair Sooke setting out to demolish the idea that Roman art was second-hand Greek work with the originality taken out. Three parts, and the section on late imperial portraiture changes how you look at every bust in every museum.

Part of SandRhomanHistory

A documentary on how post-Roman Britain turns into medieval England, following the archaeology where the written sources stop.

Part of Voices of the Past

Two hours and seven minutes on the founding, which is longer than most books give it. The length is the point: the traditions contradict each other and here the contradictions get room.

Part of Voices of the Past

How far Roman traders and embassies actually got, read from the accounts themselves: China, the Baltic, the edge of the Sahara.

Part of The History of Byzantium

Mehmed II becomes sultan in 1451 and starts planning at once. A hundred and one minutes covering 1448 to 1453, which is the planning and the diplomacy; the siege itself comes later.

Part of SandRhomanHistory

Four and a half centuries of Roman Britain in one documentary, from Caesar's landing to the withdrawal.

Part of Cost of Glory

Part of The Partial Historians

With Jesse Obert

Jesse Obert pushing against the standard account of the Roman navy: whether the fleets were permanent, and whether anti-piracy was really the job. Fifty-two minutes.

Twenty minutes on the children's crusade of 1212, one of the strangest episodes in the whole story and one where the sources are at their least reliable.

Part of HistoryMarche

Nisibis in 217, three days against Parthia that ended with Rome paying two hundred million sesterces to go home.

Part of Historia Civilis

What happened after the Rubicon, with the senate leaving the city and Caesar walking into an empty capital. The animation makes the speed of it legible.

Part of Echoes of Empires

Eighteen minutes on climate as a force in Roman history, from the warm centuries of the early empire to the cooling that came with the plague years.

Part of Historia Civilis

What a triumph actually involved: the route, the spoils, the prisoners killed at the end. A standalone explainer; it stands outside the narrative run.

Part of Voices of the Past

A Roman writing about the new sect and about a man he calls Jesus son of Panthera, read as the source gives it.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

The floods that repeatedly put the forum under water, and what Rome did about them.

Part of Cost of Glory

Seventeen minutes closing the Sertorius arc with what happened in Rome afterwards. Short, and the place to start if you want the shape before the detail.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

Four early churches in Rome examined as buildings, which is where the transition from temple to basilica is visible.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Sixteen minutes pushing back on the standard story that the late army was a shadow of the early one, which rests largely on writers with an argument to make.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Sixteen minutes on how the Guard was structured, whether it campaigned, and why emperors kept a force in the city that kept killing them.

Part of Historia Civilis

The sacred boundary of the city, why a general lost his command by crossing it, and how that one line shaped Roman politics for five centuries.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Fourteen minutes on the Ninth, which vanishes from the record after York, with a theory offered and the Scottish massacre firmly not endorsed.

Part of toldinstone

Fourteen minutes at Arykanda, stacked up a Lycian mountainside in terraces so that the theatre looks out over the valley from halfway up.

Part of toldinstone

Fourteen minutes at Pinara, a Lycian city under a cliff face honeycombed with rock- cut tombs, empty since the Byzantine centuries.

Part of toldinstone

Fourteen minutes on Delos, sacred birthplace of Apollo and, once Rome made it a free port in 166 BC, the busiest slave market in the Aegean. Both facts are on the same small island.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

A walk through the Roman collection at the Metropolitan Museum with someone explaining what each piece is for.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Thirteen minutes on client kingdoms copying Roman equipment and organisation, from Thrace to Mauretania, and how far the imitation went.

Part of Invicta

Thirteen minutes on a Total War patch, which is here because the family-tree system is a decent model of how Roman political dynasties actually worked.

Part of Historia Civilis

What Caesar actually built once he had won, which is the part the story usually skips on its way to the Ides.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Twelve minutes on the evocati, veterans recalled to serve again, and on how much political weight a body of recalled soldiers carried.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Twelve minutes on how orders travelled across a battlefield: horns, standards, and what a soldier could actually hear once it started.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Twelve minutes on posca, the sour wine and water mix that was the standard army drink, and on how Roman soldiers made bad water safe.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Twelve minutes on what a surrounded legion did, and whether the sources describe a drilled formation for it or improvisation.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Twelve minutes chasing the last attested legion, with Legio V Macedonica in Egypt as the leading candidate and the evidence for it thinner than the story.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

The river followed from its source to the sea, and what it meant for a city built on it.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Eleven minutes on what happened to auxiliary recruitment once Caracalla made everyone a citizen in 212, which removed the main incentive for joining.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Eleven minutes on whether recruits had to buy their way in, and on the deductions from pay that the Egyptian papyri actually record.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Eleven minutes on Roman marines, who in the games look like legionaries in red, and in the evidence rather less so.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Eleven minutes on the last legion to take the field as a unit, asked separately for the western and eastern empires because the answers differ by centuries.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Eleven minutes on whether ancient armies had elite units in any modern sense, and on the handful of battles where one appears to have decided the day.

Part of toldinstone

Eleven minutes at Patara, capital of the Lycian League and later the province, where the council chamber has been rebuilt and the lighthouse still stands in pieces.

Part of toldinstone

A Roman city in Algeria preserved well enough to walk through, filmed on the ground.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

A street into the forum reopened after centuries, filmed as the excavation finished.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

Where executions actually happened: the Carcer, the Tarpeian Rock, and what the locations meant to the crowd.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on the switch from spear to pilum and gladius, and on why an army would give up reach on purpose.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on whether the revolt of AD 60 could have ended differently, including what an alliance with the northern tribes would have been worth.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on the standing camp under attack: who was already awake, how the alarm travelled, and how long the ditch bought you.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on the ninety-odd per cent of army life that was not battle: building, drilling, quarrying, and the paperwork that survives from Egypt.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on the Roman navy beyond the trireme: liburnians, quinqueremes, river patrol craft, and what each was actually for.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on Cynoscephalae and Pydna, and on whether the phalanx was obsolete or just badly used on broken ground.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on the campaign against the Marcomanni that was called off in AD 6 when Illyricum revolted, and what it would have looked like.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes chasing a source: which ancient author Murray Dahm was quoting about a Roman equivalent of the Marathon run, and whether it holds up.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on how an army recruited from Syria to Britain gave orders anyone could follow, and what Latin actually functioned as.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on the counterfactual, answered by someone who spends his time on what did happen and is suitably careful with what did not.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on why Alexander's best arm was so much less effective under his successors, which is a question about doctrine and not about horses.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on the allies who made up half of every Republican army and are almost never described as anything other than present.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Ten minutes on the best question in the series: Rome's method of absorbing defeat was visible to everyone in Italy, and nobody copied it.

Part of toldinstone

What survives of Roman Alexandria, which is less than you would expect and stranger.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

The trophy as a monument type, from a pile of captured armour to the marble versions on Trajan's column.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Nine minutes on the pre-manipular army, when Rome did fight in a phalanx, and on what made it change.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Nine minutes on the wedge, the formation the sources keep mentioning and never explain, and on what it could have been in practice.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Nine minutes on how a bodyguard ended up selling the throne, which took a permanent barracks in the city and an emperor who needed them nearby.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Nine minutes on the ugly mechanics of enslavement after a battle: separation, movement, sale, and the deliberate breaking of any group that could act together.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Nine minutes on countering massed archery, which is the Near Eastern problem Rome and everyone else in the region had to solve.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Nine minutes on why imperial campaigns are so much worse documented than Republican ones, when the empire was larger and more literate.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Nine minutes on the logistics of moving a legion: whether it went at once, and who held the fort it left behind.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Nine minutes on when the three lines of the manipular army stopped being distinct, which happened gradually and not by a reform anyone announced.

Part of toldinstone

Nine minutes at Xanthos in Lycia, where the dead were put in pillar tombs raised above the living. The reliefs from the Harpy Tomb are in London; the pillars are still standing.

Part of toldinstone

The Roman capital of Crete, filmed on site, with the law code carved in stone that is still standing there.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Eight minutes on the standing argument about Caesar in Gaul, where the casualty figures come from his own account and are not modest.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Eight minutes on the polybolos, a repeating catapult that worked and that nobody kept, which makes it a good test of what ancient armies actually valued.

Part of toldinstone

Eight minutes in the Hippodrome, where the Nika riots of 532 ended with the army penning the crowd in and killing it, and where an obelisk cut for Thutmose III still stands on the base the Byzantines built for it.

Part of toldinstone

Eight minutes at Oenoanda, where a citizen named Diogenes had an entire Epicurean philosophy carved along a public portico for passers-by to read.

Part of toldinstone

Eight minutes on the Romanesque churches of northern Spain, put up five centuries after the empire and still using its arch, its vault and its basilica plan.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

Eight minutes on the Meta Sudans, the conical fountain that stood beside the Colosseum from Domitian's reign until Mussolini had the stump cleared in 1936 to widen a road for parades.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

Eight minutes on Roman bathing taken as medicine: mineral springs, prescribed cures, and resorts built on water that was thought to work on particular complaints.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

Eight minutes on the temple of Serapis that Caracalla put on the Quirinal, one of the largest in the city and now known mostly from two enormous fragments.

Part of toldinstone

The Byzantine city in the Peloponnese that outlasted Constantinople by seven years, filmed among the ruins.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

The largest surviving water tanks in the empire, filmed inside them. The Piscina Mirabilis at Misenum held twelve thousand cubic metres for the fleet.

Part of Ancient Rome Live

Ravenna, Milan, Trier and Constantinople as the cities that took over when Rome stopped being the capital.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Seven minutes on decimation and lot-drawing in the year of four emperors, a punishment that is far rarer in the record than in the films.

Part of Ancient Warfare Podcast

Seven minutes on the weakest arm of the Republican army, which is exactly the arm Hannibal used to destroy it.

Part of toldinstone

Seven minutes at Sidyma in the Lycian hills, where the tombs outlasted the town and a village was later built in among them.

Part of toldinstone

Corinth after Rome destroyed it and rebuilt it as a colony, which is two cities on one site.

Part of toldinstone

Five minutes at the Tower of Hercules above A Coruna, built under Trajan and the only Roman lighthouse anywhere still in service.

Part of toldinstone

Five minutes at Segovia, where roughly 25,000 granite blocks stand in two tiers with no mortar holding any of them together.

Part of Kings and Generals

Animated campaign maps with arrows that actually move the way the armies did. Best used the moment a podcast loses you geographically, which with Roman campaigns is roughly every twenty minutes.

How the Roman army was organised, paid, fed and moved, at the level of grain rations and marching order. Logistics, on the argument that an empire lives in its supply lines.

Battle animations with the terrain drawn properly, which turns out to be the whole difference. The Punic Wars series is the clearest visual account of Hannibal's campaigns anywhere.

Arms, armour and Latin pronunciation, from someone who handles the reproductions and reads the sources in the original. Opinionated and occasionally combative; strongest when he is holding a gladius and explaining why the grip is that shape.

Long-form narrative documentaries, often two hours, in the register of a good radio feature. For the ancient world it comes nearer to a book than anything else on YouTube.

Darius Arya filming on the sites themselves, usually with the excavation still open behind him. Less polished than the animated channels and considerably closer to the dirt.

Single-subject deep dives of an hour or more, delivered flat and sourced carefully. The kind of channel that assumes you already know the outline and wants to argue about the detail.
