A proposito di questo titolo

Join Kelli as she talks about Rome's first ever Black Banquet, hosted by Emperor Domitian in 89 CE.

Today's episode covers some Roman history including the creation of the Colosseum, the Flavian Dynasty, Cynicism and Stoicism, Memento Mori, and Domitian's spooky banquet - so scary, his guests fled in terror, fearing for their lives!

Happy early Halloween, APHOUT fans <3
