Alice Roberts has compared the archaeological finds in London to the humble lasagne. London's history is layered and can trace time through the Victorians, medieval and even back to prehistory. One of the more recent finds is that of smashed frescos dating from the Roman era. They were found during a recent excavation around the waterfront and is revealing much about the population at that time. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c62w8erwdk6o

Belatedly starting to watch #AliceRoberts explore #AncientEgypt by train (Saturday nights Channel 4). We’re just watching her first episode from #Alexandria. Liking how she’s giving a good taste of modern Egyptian life as well as the past. Many of the sites she’s visiting are lesser known in the West. Even when she visits ones we’ve seen before elsewhere she’s giving valuable new insights and contextualisation. Basically I’m very impressed! #Egypt #Egyptology #Archaeology #TV #AncientHistory
