Listen "Ancient Sicily (pt4). The Sicilian Expedition."
Episode Synopsis
Continuing my miniseries on ancient Sicily I pick up on the two separate incidents where Athens got directly involved in Sicilian affairs towards the end of the 5th century BC. Was it a good idea and what went wrong? Also, an attempt to describe Syracuse using just your hand. Oh, and a highly consequential eclipse. If you can rate or review the episode or podcast please do. Episode notes with a transcription, maps and a reading list on www.ancientblogger.com Music by Brakhage (Le Vrai Instrumental).
