Light-hearted look at historic civilisations and their inventions. Travel back to the age of the Roman Empire with Calum, Kerry Anne and the History Hunters.
Siubhail gu 脤mpireachd nan R貌manach cuide ri Calum, Kerry Anne agus na Sealgairean Sp貌rsail. San t-sreath tha fiosrachadh annasach, be貌-dhealbhaidhean agus clann a' rannsachadh buaidh innleachdan bho shean air ar saoghal an-diugh. Bha na R貌manaich nan einnseanairean m矛orbhaileach, a' cleachdadh uisge son cumhachd ann an rothan-uisge, cladhain, drochaidean-uisge is airson amair mh貌ra phoblach a l矛onadh. Bidh na Sealgairean Sp貌rsail fo dh霉bhlan seann teicne貌las cumhachd uisge nan R貌manach a chleachdadh gus tunnag beag, Quackius, a thogail dhan adhar. Thogadh na R貌manaich cuideachd rathaidean d矛reach, gun innealan an latha an-diugh. Feuchaidh na Sealgairean air rathad, a' d猫anamh inneal ris an canar groma son an cuideachadh. San sti霉idio, tha Calum agus Kerry Anne a' ceangal siota ann an cruth toga, a' togail airdse R貌manach 脿 c脿ise is 矛m-cno-thalmhainn agus a' cruthachadh tablaid c猫ir airson sgr矛obhadh.
Revisit the great Roman Empire as Calum, Kerry Anne and the History Hunters continue to bring history to life with fun facts, animations and experiments which show how inventions and discoveries from ancient times helped shape our everyday lives. The Romans were skilled engineers who used waterwheels, channels and giant aqueducts for waterpower and to feed magnificent communal baths. In this episode, the History Hunters take on the challenge of lifting a rubber duck off the ground using Roman-inspired waterwheel technology to power their experiment.
They also use a homemade groma to try and replicate the Roman practice of going to great lengths to build straight roads without modern machinery. Back in the studio, Calum and Kerry Anne figure out how to tie a toga from a sheet, create a Roman arch from cheese and peanut butter, and make a wax tablet and stylus like the ones used by Roman schoolboys.
