Our Mission

We are currently a non-profit and student-led blog dedicated to providing you a road map to the ancient world, right from the comfort of your own home. Our aim is to make it as easy as possible to discover and explore ancient Rome. We do this by publishing short blog posts on ancient sites in the UK, while also offering a brief history of their significance and interesting features to look out for when you visit. Secondly, we offer links to external websites that virtually reconstruct classical monuments from locations abroad that are not as easily accessible. Our goal is to be your first choice when looking for accurate, reputable, and easily digestible information about the ancient world.

 

The inspiration for this project derives from the current travel restrictions as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Shortly, the UK government is easing the stay-at-home advice to allow travel within local authorities. This means that now more than ever, people are looking for interesting and new places to visit within their own community. With a large percentage of the British population being furloughed, we have been gifted an excess of leisure time and not that many ideas on how to fill it. Why not use this rare occurrence of free time to discover and indulge in the ancient world around you?
