    The Dead Sea Scrolls in Israel are the oldest biblical texts in the world. These fragile Hebrew manuscripts were discovered in 1946, inside desert caves at Qumran in the West Bank.

    The Lighthouse of Alexandria in Egypt was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

    Nero's Lost Palace
    Feb 2 2026
    In 64 AD the Emperor Nero built a breathtaking palace in the heart of ancient Rome - the ‘Domus Aurea’ (the ‘Golden House’). Today little remains of this magnificent residence but it supposedly covered a quarter of the city. Archaeologists are discovering that the palace was covered with beautiful frescoes and even had a water-powered rotating dining room. This vast complex was only possible thanks to a terrible catastrophe that destroyed much of the capital – the Great Fire of Rome. Ancient writers blame Nero for starting the inferno. Did he burn down Rome to build a magnificent new metropolis? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
