Sobre este áudio

 The Herodotus Podcast is a podcast devoted to ”The Histories” by the ancient Greek historian Herodotus. Join us as we delve into his epic narrative of the Persian Empire‘s attempt to conquer the Greeks, and their struggle to preserve their freedom. Stick around for the captivating, sometimes outrageous stories that go along with the narrative: murders, ghosts, magic dolphins, and giant gold-digging ants.Copyright 2021 All rights reserved. Mundo
