Next Episode: Piracy in Ancient Greece.
In this mini episode I pick out some themes from Sappho's famous poem. But that's not all - I also include a performance of it in ancient Greek courtesy of Seikilo.
For more info, a reading list, more about Seikilo and transcription of the episode head over to www.ancientblogger.com - as you'll hear it's had a bit of an overhaul.
If you can review or send feedback my way I'd be grateful. More importantly, keep safe and thanks for listening.
