Leptis Magna and Septimius Severus with Maria Lloyd.
Leptis Magna became a celebrated Roman city on the African shore and was the birthplace of the Emperor Septimius Severus. In this episode I chat with special guest Maria Lloyd all about how the city developed and grew. We then discuss Severus, how did he rise to power and what did he do? Politics, intrigue, betrayal and even whether it's Leptis or Lepcis. We cover loads - so get listening! Music by Music by Brakhage (Le Vrai Instrumental).
