Interview the Expert
An academic Expert in some field of interest about Ancient Rome, (history, philosophy, engineering, military, religio, epigraphy, Lingua Latina, archaeology et cetera) is interviewed. Questions can be asked by all Nova Romans.
Each month the monthly theme will be published and the name of the Expert that will answer to the questions about it. During the following month every Nova Roman who is interested can send questions via email to Manius Constantinus Serapio (mcserapio@yahoo.it).
At the end of the month the 4-5 questions most interesting and curious questions will be selected from among those received. As soon as the expert will answer these questions, they will be published in this page and communicated in the Main Mailing list of Nova Roma.
The all project will be directed by Manius Constantinus Serapio in collaboration with Provincia Italia - Academia Italica.
