History of the Hellenistic and Roman World


History of the Hellenistic and Roman World Extensive site dedicated to ancient Rome. Biographies on emperors, timelines, interactive maps, and sections on Roman society and the military.


From the site:

On the following pages, you will find a number of articles describing various events and personalities of the Hellenistic and Roman world in the time period 300 BCE to 1 CE. I have been very pleased by the great popularity of the (former) Geocities website which now - for the second time - has caused me to move the website to a new domain. With any luck, this will be the last time I will need to do so. I hope this website will be able to continue to serve, inspire and help people looking for information about the Hellenistic and Roman worlds for many years to come.
