Mary Beard walked so Philomena Cunk could run! | ancient cake, David Beckham, Roman graffiti & more.

The iconic classicist Mary Beard, who has written a range of books spanning diverse historical themes - from the emperors of Rome, women & power, love & laughter in our ancient worlds, and more - joins Itihāsology’s founder Eric Chopra and music programmer & broadcaster-podcaster Sarthak Kaushik in an episode of the Jaipur Bytes podcast and shares how ancient Egyptian cake led her to falling in love with history; how David Beckham’s tattoos aided her in teaching students about the complexity yet everydayness of Roman Numerals; about her experiences as an academic with an authority on Ancient Rome and simultaneously a highly accessible TV and radio presenter; and what she thinks about those who attempt at being gatekeepers of history.
