Really enjoyed that, have Mr Carafa back again. His passion and knowledge really shine through.
What a wonderful guest. It´s a pleasure to listen to an expert talking!
Enjoyed every bit of this, whilst walking under the scorching summer sun of Arabia.
Just wonderful. So thankful for the work you share.
Was just on the Palatine Hill today
Already listened to this on my podcast app and really enjoyed Dr. Carafa's explanations on Octavian's palace. The idea of the architecture not only being grandious, or just a symbol of imperial status, but also being designed in a much more deliberate way. To separate or meld certain parts of the city and maybe concentrate power through the building complex itself. Thank you for the interview :)
Great! Thank you, Gentlemen.
Honestly loved this and found it fascinating.
Great interview. I was waiting for a question about the hut of Romulus. :) This channel is super high-quality!
When I first heard the name of your guest I thought of the famous princes of the House of Carafa (Neapolitan) that I came across in grad studies (it was on Caroline Bonaparte Murat and her ongoing funding of the excavations at Pompeii) but too late for my paper I found Dr Carafa and his editor Andrea Caradini recently produced a 2 volume Atlas of Ancient Rome (some 1200 pages). Oh what I would have given for such an Atlas in grad school! Actually, I would prob do so now too! It is pricey but this isn’t just a work of love from Carafa and Carandini, but genius. Thank you for this podcast, and I sincerely hope Dr Carafa has plans to do an Atlas of Naples in the works! (Btw, Naples should not be seen as a poor sister of Rome nor a latter-day frivolous wasteland of Bourbons, I assure you it has as many of not more attractions as Rome!)

In Carandini’s Rome Day One, he has no references to any other author. He’s a senator for life, and very much an establishment figure. His father was the ambassador to Britain immediately after Mussolini was deposed. What gets my goat is that he believes the myths of Rome’s foundation were all true.
Wow this was really interesting Garrett, it's great to hear these developments
This episode made me subscribe to your patreon.
Thank you so much, I hope everyone interested gets to see this, it is wonderful.
Wonderful, I learned so much from Dr. Carafa here! Thanks to both of you. I didn’t realize for a while that this is a separate channel, so I just subscribed. Keep the great interviews coming❤
I have bought your book , is so good !!!😀
I can’t wait until we find the she-wolf so that Garrett can interview her.

This one felt a lot more like a lecture than the others. Lots of descriptions, but not so much discussion or explanation. More a list of statements about what we do and do not know. Not saying there's anything wrong with that, but I do prefer these podcasts when they're more of a chat trying to get at a nugget of historical insights.
Great discussion, very interesting. Thank you both very much !
Yes, it is incredible.
As one who looks at the stars (when not washed out with city lights) I'd like a little more explanation of one of Professor Carafa's comments. He says Nero "alined [a street] with the constellation that was in the sky when he was born" (31:28). If it was his zodiacal sun sign, as I assume it was, it must have risen with the sun in the east and set in the west with the sun at sunset. Was the street aligned with the point on the horizon where the sun rose or set on his birthday?

Thanks for the "like" but I still await an explanation of the astro-logi/nomi-cal puzzler
What is the full title/author of the catalogue mentioned at 20:00?
Once again we know a lot
Needs to have subtitles at some unclear points. Ill need to watch someof his Italian interviews. But Carafa is clearly a good student of Carandini. Good to see someone besides only Coalucci.
Yes, it's both an informative and utterly delightful interview. But I struck by a very odd thing. Garrett actually allows his expert guests to FULLY ANSWER his questions! He refuses to allow those inevitable dead spots where he says, "Hmmm..." or "That's interesting..." to bother him. Most interviewers live in such stark fear of such moments that they feel they have to step on guests or insert something forced after each question is answered. Why? I haven't a clue.
Rome was built in a day, duh.
it’s incredible how hard is to find contents like this in italian, ironic, most interesting videos ever 📜🏺
