Event:Summer of Fun - Toxic Romans

National Roman Legion Museum
Finished

What have the Romans ever done for us? We often reel off lists of accomplishments like aqueducts, public baths, roads and education, but the Roman Empire also had a downside.

Some of what they did was definitely not environmentally – or human – friendly. Come to this drop-in session to find out more about toxic Romans. 

 

These activities are being organised by Amgueddfa Cymru and the Federation of Welsh Museums & art Galleries as part of the Summer of Fun initiative, which is funded by the Welsh Government
