Sappho's Ode to Aphrodite
Ancient History Hound
07/02/22 • 15 min
In this mini episode I pick out some themes from Sappho's famous poem. But that's not all - I also include a performance of it in ancient Greek courtesy of Seikilo.
For more info, a reading list, more about Seikilo and transcription of the episode head over to www.ancientblogger.com - as you'll hear it's had a bit of an overhaul.
If you can review or send feedback my way I'd be grateful. More importantly, keep safe and thanks for listening.

Ancient History Hound
06/27/20 • 42 min
It's time to turn my attention to the references made to eclipses in antiquity. They appear in palace records, poems and historical writings and across the Mediterranean (including Mesopotamia).
How where they understood? What rituals were observed and how can they be used to date and locate an event? Join me to find out more.
Notes to the episode can also be found at ancientblogger.com
