I came across what I feel is a fun way to teach a bit of Roman history to the masses. It is a game called Death In Rome, and can be played right on the BBC website.

Here is a snippet from the introduction:
"Be a Roman sleuth - use your detective skills to unravel the events behind a mysterious death.
You have until dawn to investigate the crime scene, and crack the case.
Time is short. Each expert you consult will cost you precious minutes. Piece together the puzzle using their evidence, eye-witness testimonies, and perhaps a little detective's intuition."
You can play the game by clicking here.
Kudos to the BBC for helping to promote history in a creative way, and for producing what in your humble blog host's opinion are by far some of the best history based documentaries in the world. ![]()
