Life in Roman Pompeii

Homeschool History

Join Greg Jenner for a fun Homeschool History lesson on life in Roman Pompeii, as we share what archeologists have discovered from the town that was frozen in time 2000 years ago.

How did they brush their teeth? What was the name of the local pub? And just how do we know so much about what they ate?
