The project is funded by the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council for a period of three years (2016-2019).
What the research team would like people to do, is to watch the videos that are showed, and add tags that describe featured topics, people and periods. they were uploaded since the year 2016, and searched using the keywords 'Roman Empire' and 'Britain'.
This project is on behalf of:
