A DAY IN ANCIENT ROME

A travel through history will lead us to the discovery of many aspects of Romans daily life, thanks to reproductions of roman objects such as musical instruments, tableware and weapons.

• we'll test our inner artisan abilities by making a terracotta oil lamp or a wonderful mosaic

• we'll meet a real, fearsome roman soldier, who will show us the fighting techniques that made Roman legions invincible, and we'll even use a shield to try out some battle formations!

• we'll learn how life was for the Roman kids impersonating them in a play and making good luck amulets.
We'll find out how kids had fun two-thousand years ago, without TV, videogames or tablets, and we'll play a real tournament of ancient games to test our knack, logic and skills.

• we'll learn about roman recipes and the extravagant tastes of rich aristocrats who indulged in sumptuous banquets: from puls to the hugely popular garum, from boiled ostrich to flavored wine.
