The Abandoned City of Viroconium: Home of the WEREWOLF?

David and Mariza make their way south from Carlisle and visit three significant places in their search for ancient artifacts. The first is the site of old Roman Bremetennacum veteranorum, the modern village of Ribchester, where there is a small, but interesting, museum, and ruins of the Roman fort. After that, they travel to Liverpool to visit the wonderful World Museum, which holds a fantastic ancient Egypt exhibit. Then they finish off the day by exploring the ruins of Vircoconium near modern Wroxeter.

Viriconium is just down the road from me. Great place to visit

[@edgarsnake2857]

Thanks. Professor. I missed this video 'til now (2024). Great stuff, as always.

[@beforeoriondotcom]

Educational and interesting. There is even a werewolf!

[@richardlindquist5936]

Interesting stuff!

[@t.wcharles2171]

If you go to the nearby Attingham park (the stately home of the Berwick family) and go on the ww2 walk you can see Wroxeter from above

[@stephenchappell7512]

The surviving masonry structures at Wroxeter, Leicester and Lincoln are indeed impressive. However they pale in comparison when compared to some of the surviving walls of the Saxon Shore Forts on the South and East Coast.

Do you have a kid? I don't but I remember watching "The Mummy" (black and white version) when I was a kid, and I could tell you now if I walked up to a mummy exhibit back when I was a kid, I would definitely run out screaming but, I also cried when I met Mickey Mouse and Santa Clause for the first times. Nice video.

[@MaryAnnNytowl]

Ooh, a Dr. Miano video I missed seeing? Must fix that, and leave a like and comment for the care & feeding of the Almighty Algorithm. ❤️❤️

They always say that viruconium was the inspiration for Camelot yet there was a camulod-unum

[@ansfridaeyowulfsdottir8095]

You forgot the Jutes and Friesians. {:o:O:}

[@bingeplanet4463]

market your channel bro!!!! pay some one or learn. because this is better then ancient architect. dont wait on youtube to give you some love. go and get it.

[@WorldofAntiquity]

Aw, thanks! I don't have the funds to pay for anything substantial, and when I have done the typical Facebook or Instagram ads, it has had middling results. I'm told that over time, it will snowball. I'm still less than a year old.

@@WorldofAntiquity I used to have a channel called binge videos. My first video got 9million views and. Second got 120k. I used stumbleupon, pin interest to share my videos. They are basically free and millions if not thousands of people will stumble on it. 1st create the illussion of popularity, that you got a lot of subs, and that will attract more subs and then that will multiply. I don't want you to go years making this kind of content with out results, loose faith, burn out because your not seeing the hard work convert to subs. Your vids are delicious to my senses and curiosity. "Without marketing the best companies and the best product are doomed to failure". Steve jobs

[@WorldofAntiquity]

Thank you for the tips. I will check those sites out!

[@bingeplanet4463]

Looks like you invest a lot of energy and passion behind this field, that's why I keep coming back, its my cup of tea. Love your work. Till next time
