Examines a series of questions about beliefs and events from ancient history, including such issues as did the Egyptians believe mummies would come back to life, were the first Olympics held in Greece, and did Nero play his violin while Rome burned. - Baker & Taylor
Explore whether there's a factual basis for common ideas about ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Readers will find out if Mount Olympus is a real place, if Egyptians had cat gods and cat mummies, if Hannibal rode across the Alps on elephants, and if Emperor Nero really played his violin as Rome went up in flames.
