France: Bavay & Boulogne – Roman ruins revealed
In the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region of France we visit two archaeological sites: Bavay, capital of the Nervii, and an important commercial centre from which Caesar marched forth on his conquest of Britain; and Boulogne, the harbor where the Roman Classis Britannica was stationed and where underground excavations revealed the foundations of the City’s Gallo-Roman walls. Painted walls, building foundations and artifacts from the sites reveal the significance of these two locations. This is part 1 of 4 in which we cross the English Channel to explore the Roman connection between Nord-Pas-de-Calais in France and Kent, in England.

5. Cyprus Mosaics
Romans were masters of creating, massive beautiful mosaics, using different colored stones. And these weren’t only found in Italy. Roman artists also worked about 1200 miles away on the Mediterranean island of Cyprus. Here in this photo you see the mosaic floor that measures 13 feet wide by 36 feet long and it was discovered just 19 miles from Cyprus’ current capital city, in 2016. This dates back to the 4th century AD. Expert archaeologists believe it was once the floor of a wealthy Roman nobleman who lived in Cyprus during roman rule. The photo depicts charioteers during a race being pulled by a total of 4 horses with the names of the horse inscribed. It is still in remarkable condition! It’s quite rare to find mosaics that are so well preserved from the Roman times. The color and detail is simply amazing. Another part of the mosaic depicts a man on a horseback with two others holding water and a whip. Chariot races were an exciting part of Roman culture and would almost be like the equivalent us having a poster of our favorite team on the wall but much more expensive and massive scale.
4. Gallo Roman Necropolis
It’s amazing to think that all across Europe, some one could discover something new about one civilization, even though sometimes it can get a little eery. Archaeologists were able to discover hundreds of graves, this time in Western France, near a town called Saintes. Several bodies were buried with iron shackles around their necks, like we can see in this photo. These were believed to be Roman slaves. The burial site is located about 250 meters west of the Saintes Amphitheatre and possibly a dumping pit for the losers of the gladiatorial battles. This necropolis, like many in the Roman Empire were constructed outside the city as a burial site and also where cremations. Unfortunately, not many artifacts were uncovered, only coins that were left over the deceased's eyes. This was a Roman tradition so the person’s spirit could pay the ferryman to transport them across the river, that separated the world of the living and the world of the dead.
3. The Ct Scans of Pompeii
After the volcanic eruption of mount Vesuvius that devastated the large city of Pompeii in 79 AD, many were left as human statues, plastered in volcanic ash. Similar to how we will look after a supervolcano explosion. Scientists decided to take a few human statues and Ct scan them in order to see what lies beneath the coat of ash. 86 ancient victims of this horrific incident are given a face after 1900 years. The images have finally been released, so let’s a look at some of our ancient Roman ancestors. This first one, appears to be a 4 year old child who were found along his parents after the eruption and shows the results of the 3D scan. Other Ct scans bring the skull more to life by giving it a muscular pink cover. Even before the invention of braces, he appears to have perfect teeth. Many are frozen in time with their last pose being the one that will last forever. Even dogs were found frozen in time. This site still attracts many tourists and is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
2. The Mysterious Dodecahedron
These bizarre dodecahedrons are found all over former territories of the Roman Empire but no one can really figure out what exactly it’s used for. It’s strange design even make some people wonder if it has extraterrestrial origins. About 100 of these have been discovered in places like the UK, Hungary, Germany and France. They tend to be made of bronze but the true mystery is it’s purpose. New theories seem to pop up all the time. With explanations ranging from candle holders, dice, glove makers and even astronomical measuring. With such a bizarre range of possible uses, people have tried to prove their theories and one person, even showed how it could be used to make gloves. Which theory do you believe is correct?
1.Gladiator’s Helmet
Found in the ruins of Pompeii, this perfectly preserved gladiator’s helmet was uncovered by archeologists in 2009. This was known to be the helmet of an armored gladiator known as the murmillo. This type of gladiator, fought with a deadly short thrusting sword known as a gladius, which is where the word gladiator comes from. He protected himself with this style of helmet as well as segmented armor on his dominant arm. He represented the warriors found in the territory of Gaul or modern day France. Here in this photo you can see an artist's portrayal of a victorious murmillo gladiators. This style of gladiator worked well for big men, with large muscular arms and strong shoulders to carry the weight of the armor and shield. Depending on his endurance, the gladiator had a good chance of winning because of his equipment.
Most Unbelievable Roman Places
The roman empire stretched from the atlantic ocean, all the way to the tigris river. They had a plethora of foes who wanted to bring them down and eventually they would succeed. However, the engineers who helped construct architectural masterpieces will help the legacy of this great empire live on for centuries to come. From massive amphitheaters built in the middle east, to grand aqueducts that delivered water to the people, here are the most unbelievable roman places
12.Maison Carree
Also in the French city of Nimes, the maison carree translates to the square house and it’s one of the best roman temples left over in modern times. It was dedicated to Gaius Caesar and Lucius caesar who were adopted sons of Agustus. It’s a fine example of vitruvian architecture and stands about 17 meters high. Completed in the 2nd year AD, it’s needed quite a bit of restorations throughout the years and you can tell some of stones look just a little bit too white for it to be totally authentic. In any case, the temple inspired some buildings we see in America such as the virginia state capitol building which was designed by Thomas Jefferson. However this version is made of stucco and not marble. It’s now a musee des beaux arts or fine arts museum.
11.Pont Du Gard
Pont du gard is not just a bridge but also an aqueduct! In fact, it’s the tallest roman aqueduct and is also one of the best preserved. This was what supplied the water to the roman colony of Nime where the Maison Carree is located. It’s a fine example of Roman engineering and rises 160 feet up into sky. It would have almost been like the golden gate bridge of it’s time. The aqueducts made it possible for roman amenities such fountains, baths and freshwater. In order for the citizens of nimes to this essential resource, over 50,400 tons of limestone were needed and some of the blocks weighed as much as 6 tons. After rome fell, it was transformed into a toll bridge where crossers would pay a fee to get to the other side of the Gardon River. The famous French philospher, jean jacques rousseau claimed that it greatly surpassed his expectations. Many are still amazed by these aqueducts in modern times and you’ll often find visitors walking by or even sketching ruins
10.Gallo Roman Necropolis
It’s amazing to think that all across Europe, some one could discover something new about one civilization, even though sometimes it can get a little eery. Archaeologists were able to discover hundreds of graves, this time in Western France, near a town called Saintes. Several bodies were buried with iron shackles around their necks, like we can see in this photo. These were believed to be Roman slaves. The burial site is located about 250 meters west of the Saintes Amphitheatre and possibly a dumping pit for the losers of the gladiatorial battles. This necropolis, like many in the Roman Empire were constructed outside the city as a burial site and also where cremations. Unfortunately, not many artifacts were uncovered, only coins that were left over the deceased's eyes. This was a Roman tradition so the person’s spirit could pay the ferryman to transport them across the river, that separated the world of the living and the world of the dead.
9.Ancient Bosra
The ancient city of Bosra has been mentioned as far back at 14th century BC in Egyptian documents. Here in this photo we see the ancient roman amphitheatre that was built by the Romans and is still used today due to its excellent acoustics. The city is located in the country of Syria and was originally built on the outside of the city walls but later enclosed by a fortress. The theatre is constructed out of black basalt in the 1st century AD and can seat a maximum of 15,000 people and was one of the biggest arenas ever built by the Romans despite it’s distance from Rome. The Ancient city of Bosra was once an extremely important trading destination, and was once home to people of all religions. In 2015, people reported that parts were damaged due to political instability in the area.

Arles, France 3 Museum & Crypt
The Musée de l'Arles Antique primarily displays treasures from the Roman period of Arles with an excellent layout in a large building that opened in 1995. There are rows of marble sarcophagi, or tombs, of the Romans and early Christians, richly decorated with sculpture depicting religious scenes and daily life.
Elevated platforms enable you to look down on the large collection of mosaic floors from Roman homes that were all found in this area of course, and they reveal brilliant scenes created with thousands, perhaps millions, of tiny pieces of colored stones depicting sea creatures, the zodiac, nereids, the four seasons and realistic human portraits. A large, impressive 3-D model of Arles in ancient Roman times shows how the city covered all of today's historic center and demonstrates how sophisticated the buildings were. A detailed model of the arena shows how little it has changed over the millennia. Also on display are original glass works, tools, gold jewelry, small statues, and a nice lineup of busts of the various emperors, along with simpler artifacts dating back to the Stone Age.
These dramatic displays remind us that Arles was one of the largest economic centers in the Roman Empire, with a busy commercial harbor and an extensive urban core. Even then it was so valued as a place to stay that many Roman generals retired here and are buried in the Alyscamps cemetery along with hundreds of their soldiers, in the south part of town. Arles, in Provence, in the south of France.
In and Around an Archeological Dig
It's my understanding the church structure will also go through massive restoration and will be used as a church again.
Gonesse, France is in Greater Paris and near Charles de Gaulle-Roissy international airport. It's where a Concord SST jet crashed in July, 2000. Passy cemetery near Trocadéro in Paris is worth a visit, and many victims are buried there.
This is one of the world's first Gothic buildings, and compares in period, style and more to Notre-Dame de Paris, Saint-Denis, Mantes and others. It also sports a non-religious slogan dating from the first French revolution in the 18th c. over the main portal. These are rare now in France and the only other one I've seen is in Houdan. It might be hard for people to imagine a period of time in what they know now to be France in which all things connected to religion were banned, destroyed or converted to other uses. The basilica of Saint-Denis, for example, a royal necropôle, was desecrated, destroyed and used as a granary, its roof being melted down for other purposes, such as bullets.
This site was important for sacred rites in Pagan, Roman and Gallo-Roman times, and various structures have been here. For that reason and due to centuries of burials inside, including Merovingian tombs, the integrity of the structure has been severaly compromised and without these works, this will not stand all that much longer.
Many, many tombs and artifacts are being found here. By a stroke of luck, I happened to get in without making a reservation. I don't know who the other people being given a tour were, but I was fortunate to join them.
The Medieval and later features of Gonesse are interesting. Right across from the church, I saw an old street (really an alley) along what seems to be a fortification -- a strategic, protecting wall -- named Hell, as being outside the protection of the wall was not likely pleasant. At least two major invasions of Barbarians in the Dark Ages made walls a necessity for survival. I live in Saint-Denis, a Medieval walled city also just outside Paris.
Behind the church looks like the ruins of what may have been the Hôtel Dieu -- the charity hospital. I walked around and went back inside to hear more explanations and to see more. Looking at an enormous Gothic church (this one dedicated to the saints Peter and Paul, a popular motif in early Medieval times especially) all ripped up inside was really quite something -- certainly an atypical sight. Archeological digs take place in France all the time, of course, and many are right in and around Paris, the capital city. They are usually, but not always, open to the public for a time. If you visit, find out what's happening in that way and try to go. It won't be there your next visit. At least not the way you saw it.
Nearly all of Ile-de-France is well-served by public transportation. By focusing only on a few well-known attractions in Paris, you'll probably have to deal with crowds, admission fees and things everyone else sees. By doing a little research, you can often see something right next door which is less-frequented and probably even more interesting. Almost no one bothers with the chapel next to the famous Sacre-Coeur Basilica in Montmartre, which is lovely but only about a hundred years old. The ancient chapel, however, is so full of history and atmosphere, and you'll have it pretty much to yourself.

Drone-assisted archeology - hi-tech
We are on highway A1 near Lausanne, Switzerland. Under the asphalt, an archaeological dig is underway on an ancient Gallo-Roman site. It's a long, time-consuming job, which has been made easier in recent times thanks to new technology.
Archaeologist Olivier Feihl is making a 3D map of the dig using a drone equipped with a camera.
It takes a photo every 1.5 or 2 metres to make sure the whole surface is covered, so that the photos will overlap, enabling us to measure the archaeological dig in 3D, he tells euronews.
It's a true revolution for archaeologists and helps them save a lot of time.
Before we had this kind of technology, everything was done by hand, says Sebastien Freudiger, who is also working on the project. Each wall was drawn by hand, each layer was drawn by hand. Now, this new technology enables us to do all of that on a computer.
It takes the drone just ten minutes to take all the snaps needed. They are then processed by computer and transformed into highly precise 3D data.
Oliver Feihl explains how the technology works:
The photos are downloaded into a photogrammetry programme, which allows us to assemble them. Each blue rectangle you see on the screen represents the position of a photo taken of the site. Then, thanks to GPS, we're able to establish a metric scale and a reference horizon for this 3D model, he says.
It's not only a precious tool for archaeologists but also one which benefits the greater public.
It's a very rich source of data for us. It also means that we can make these pictures more accessible to the public, put them on the internet for everyone to see how the dig is progressing, he tells euronews.
Robert Michel is a prehistoric ceramic specialist. He also has a passion for new technology. He wants to share his passion with visitors.
An archaeologist is able to stand in front of a pile of ruins and imagine what it used to look like in 3D, to see the different rooms of a Roman villa, for example, and what they were used for. That's not the case for ordinary people, who just see a pile of stones and nothing beyond that, he says.
At the ruins of a Roman villa in the town of Vicques, visitors have to imagine what it used to look like with the help of drawings. So Robert has created an entire 3D reconstruction of the site on the social media website Second Life. It's both a way for visitors to discover the site online and a scientific tool.
Some English and American universities make use of this technology to visualise ancient sites, thanks to these digital models, which are easy to handle, he says.
A few kilometres over the border, in France, lie the remains of the ancient Roman theatre of Mandeure. Here, visitors are able to go on a visual journey back in time thanks to a simple tablet:
What we have on this tablet is a 3D digital reconstruction of the theatre. Thanks to GPS, when we stroll through the theatre, we are able to see what it used to look like, in 3D...so we can see, for example, that the surrounding walls were 10 or 15 metres high.That gives you an idea of just how big the theatre was, says Ludovic Messinger, manager of the Numeri4D project.

Places to see in ( Paris - France ) Archeological Crypt of the Parvis of Notre Dame
Places to see in ( Paris - France ) Archeological Crypt of the Parvis of Notre Dame
Converted in 1980 under the square in front of Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral to display archaeological remains discovered during excavations from 1965 to 1972, the crypt provides a unique overview of urban and architectural development of the Île de la Cité, the historical heart of Paris. Visitors can travel back in time by discovering successive buildings erected on the site from Ancient Times to the twentieth century and walk through ancient ruins on which mediaeval and classical remains are superimposed. The aim of the tour is to provide a better understanding of how the city has been in a continuous state of reconstruction for over 2,000 years by revealing its various archaeological layers.
The Gallo-Roman town of Lutetia began to develop on the left bank of the Seine in the reign of Augustus (27 BC to 14 AD). This site was occupied by the Gaulish tribe, the Parisii, whose name features on coins recovered fromthe river Seine. In the first quarter of the first century AD, several small islands were joined together to form the current Île de la Cité.
From the middle of the third century right up until the fifth century AD, Lutetia which was threatened by the first Germanic invasions, was a strategic site for the defence of the Roman Empire against the barbarians. The Île de la Cité was fortified in 308, becoming the active centre of the city and the settlement on the left bankwas partially abandoned.
The Middle Ages saw the rise of development focused around the cathedral, whose construction began in 1163. This included the creation of a new street, the rue Neuve Notre-Dame, in line
with the central great door of the cathedral, the reconstruction of theHôtel-Dieu hospital to the South of the cathedral square and the construction of buildings and churches.
In the eighteenth century, many mediaeval buildings were destroyed to ease traffic and improve sanitation in the Île de la Cité. The squarewas extended, the rue Neuve Notre-Dame was widened and the Hospice des Enfants-Trouvés foundling hospital was built.
In the nineteenth century, the city prefect, Haussmann, carried out a radical programme of urban restructuring, destroying many old buildings and lanes. Barracks (which are now the police headquarters) were erected at the back of the square, in addition to the currentHôtel–Dieu on the side of the square. The current layout of the square is the result of these major changes.

Pont du Gard, France
The Roman aqueduct of Pont du Gard is one of the greatest sights in all of ancient history. It's an incredibly impressive structure. In fact, it is the tallest ancient bridge and the second-highest structure the Romans ever built, after the Coliseum in Rome, which is just 6 feet higher.

Not only is this a work of great engineering, but it has come down to us as one of the most important works of art of the ancient world, a work of great architecture recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was built to carry water from the countryside into the city of Nîmes, which was a big Roman center back in those days, and it continued carrying water for five hundred years.

SUMMARY
=======
The first written records for the history of France appeared in the Iron Age. What is now France made up the bulk of the region known to the Romans as Gaul. Roman writers noted the presence of three main ethno-linguistic groups in the area: the Gauls, the Aquitani, and the Belgae. The Gauls, the largest and best attested group, were Celtic people speaking what is known as the Gaulish language.
Over the course of the 1st millennium BC the Greeks, Romans and Carthaginians established colonies on the Mediterranean coast and the offshore islands. The Roman Republic annexed southern Gaul as the province of Gallia Narbonensis in the late 2nd century BC, and Roman forces under Julius Caesar conquered the rest of Gaul in the Gallic Wars of 58–51 BC. Afterwards a Gallo-Roman culture emerged and Gaul was increasingly integrated into the Roman Empire.
In the later stages of the Roman Empire, Gaul was subject to barbarian raids and migration, most importantly by the Germanic Franks. The Frankish king Clovis I united most of Gaul under his rule in the late 5th century, setting the stage for Frankish dominance in the region for hundreds of years. Frankish power reached its fullest extent under Charlemagne. The medieval Kingdom of France emerged from the western part of Charlemagne's Carolingian Empire, known as West Francia, and achieved increasing prominence under the rule of the House of Capet, founded by Hugh Capet in 987.
A succession crisis following the death of the last direct Capetian monarch in 1328 led to the series of conflicts known as the Hundred Years' War between the House of Valois and the House of Plantagenet. The war formally began in 1337 following Philip VI's attempt to seize the Duchy of Aquitaine from its hereditary holder, Edward III of England, the Plantagenet claimant to the French throne. Despite early Plantagenet victories, including the capture and ransom of John II of France, fortunes turned in favor of the Valois later in the war. Among the notable figures of the war was Joan of Arc, a French peasant girl who led French forces against the English, establishing herself as a national heroine. The war ended with a Valois victory in 1453.
Victory in the Hundred Years' War had the effect of strengthening French nationalism and vastly increasing the power and reach of the French monarchy. During the period known as the Ancien Régime, France transformed into a centralized absolute monarchy. During the next centuries, France experienced the Renaissance and the Protestant Reformation. At the height of the French Wars of Religion, France became embroiled in another succession crisis, as the last Valois king, Henry III, fought against rival factions the House of Bourbon and the House of Guise. Henry, King of Navarre, scion of the Bourbon family, would be victorious in the conflict and establish the French Bourbon dynasty. A burgeoning worldwide colonial empire was established in the 16th century. French political power reached a zenith under the rule of Louis XIV, The Sun King, builder of Versailles Palace.
In the late 18th century the monarchy and associated institutions were overthrown in the French Revolution. The country was governed for a period as a Republic, until the French Empire was declared by Napoleon Bonaparte. Following Napoleon's defeat in the Napoleonic Wars, France went through several further regime changes, being ruled as a monarchy, then briefly as a Second Republic, and then as a Second Empire, until a more lasting French Third Republic was established in 1870.
France was one of the Triple Entente powers in World War I, fighting alongside the United Kingdom, Russia, Italy, Japan, the United States and smaller allies against Germany and the Central Powers.
France was one of the Allied Powers in World War II, but was conquered by Nazi Germany in 1940. The Third Republic was dismantled, and most of the country was controlled di ...

Introducing ????????Italy [The Atlantic Community Series - NATO Documentaries, 1955]
Presentation of Italy's history and contribution to Western defense and the Atlantic Community.
Introducing Italy is part of a series originally designed as Know your Allies, and finally titled the Atlantic Community Series.
Its objectives were to familiarize public opinion in each of the member country with the other Alliance members and to emphasize the national contributions to Western culture and political traditions, economic reconstruction and allied defense in the framework of NATO.
The series was produced between 1954 and 1956 and financed by the US government in the context of the Marshall Plan with the cooperation of the Information Service of NATO, and distributed by NATO. The films in the Atlantic Community Series received large non-theatrical distribution and, in some cases, were shown in cinemas and on TV. Language versions were made and distributed with the help of the national governments.
“My country and NATO” tells the story of each one of NATO’s members, using a selection of unique archival materials to take you back in time.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Visigothic Kingdom or Kingdom of the Visigoths (Latin: Regnum Gothorum) was a kingdom that occupied what is now southwestern France and the Iberian Peninsula from the 5th to the 8th centuries. One of the Germanic successor states to the Western Roman Empire, it was originally created by the settlement of the Visigoths under King Wallia in the province of Aquitaine in southwest France by the Roman government and then extended by conquest over all of the Iberian Peninsula. The Kingdom maintained independence from the Eastern Roman or Byzantine Empire, the attempts of which to re-establish Roman authority in Iberia were only partially successful and short-lived. The Visigoths were considered the most civilized among the barbarians, and considered themselves heirs of the Roman Empire; the Goths were the first people to invade Rome and to defeat a Roman emperor in battle. The Visigoths became Foederati of Rome, and wanted to restore the Roman order against the hordes of Vandals, Alans and Suevi. The Roman Empire fell in 476 A.D.; therefore, the Visigoths believed they had the right to take the territories that Rome had promised in Hispania in exchange for restoring the Roman order.Sometimes referred to as the regnum Tolosanum or Kingdom of Toulouse after its capital Toulouse in modern historiography, the kingdom lost much of its territory in Gaul to the Franks in the early 6th century, save the narrow coastal strip of Septimania, but the Visigoth control of Iberia was secured by the end of that century with the submission of the Suebi. The kingdom of the 6th and 7th centuries is sometimes called the regnum Toletanum after the new capital of Toledo.
The ethnic distinction between the indigenous Hispano-Roman population and the Visigoths had largely disappeared by this time (the Gothic language lost its last and probably already declining function as a church language when the Visigoths converted to Catholicism in 589). The Visigothic Code (completed in 654) abolished the old tradition of having different laws for Romans and for Visigoths. Most of the Visigothic Kingdom was conquered by Umayyad troops from North Africa in 711 AD, with only the northern reaches of Spain remaining in Christian hands. These gave birth to the medieval Kingdom of Asturias when a local landlord called Pelayo, most likely of Gothic origin, was elected Princeps by the Astures.
The Visigoths and their early kings were Arians and came into conflict with the Catholic Church, but after they converted to Nicene Christianity, the Church exerted an enormous influence on secular affairs through the Councils of Toledo. The Visigoths also developed the highly influential law code known in Western Europe as the Visigothic Code (Liber Iudiciorum), which would become the basis for Spanish law throughout the Middle Ages.

EPISODIO 107 de PERO ESO ES OTRA HISTORIA (web serie documental)
SACRO IMPERIO 2: Otón I y la Dinastía Sajona
Enrique I el Pajarero fue elegido rey de Francia Oriental por los duques germanos, sin embargo, el cargo de emperador del Sacro Imperio Romano Germánico no llegaría hasta que su hijo Otón I fuera coronado por el papa. Otón I logró unificar toda Germania, imponiendo su autoridad sobre los duques electores, y además venció a las tribus de húngaros, o magiares, en la Batalla de Lechfeld del 955. Sus descendientes Otón II, Otón III y Enrique II el Santo continuarían con su política unitaria, pero no acabaría bien para ellos.
