Frontiers of the Roman Empire
#3
Quote:I stumbled acros this one today, a series of documentaries about the Roman Limes in several languages.

Nice to see Da'janiya on the Jordanian one - once spent a night hiding from wild dogs there whilst trying to survey it!

Some (if not all) of these videos have been knocking around on DVD for ages as part of the attempt to get the whole frontier system inscribed as a World Heritage Site and there was a point where I kept getting these freebies drop out of everything I opened. Although there are apparently problems with the concept of a trans-national WHS the drive is still on to inscribe the component parts separately - Croatia had some bumf about their own section of the frontier whilst we were there for ROMEC.
