About this episode
The story of ancient Italy is so much more than just Rome. In this special episode, we're shining a light on the extraordinary site of Paestum in southern Italy, home to some of the greatest ancient Greek temples from anywhere in the world. Guided through Paestum's story with the site's director Dr Tiziana D'Angelo and Dr Kathryn Lomas, Tristan follows the story of Paestum from its Greek beginnings in c.600 BC all the way down to its eventual takeover by Rome more than 300 years later. Tristan's new documentary, Paestum: A Tale of Three Cities, is out now. Watch on History Hit MORE Fall of the Etruscans Listen on Apple Listen on Spotify Roman Roads Listen on Apple Listen on Spotify…
