Yes, it has so much to offer- including several rare gilded reliefs and statues. The 900 inscriptions narrate the history of Rome and its diverse inhabitants- and the bathing rooms of the imperial baths are stunning!
The drama is a little big with the music, but the video is fascinating and just excellent! I really, really love your videos. I always look forward to them.
I lived in southern Italy in the early to late 70s. I saw many wonders of Rome, but not the Museo delle Terme. In those days, the area around the train station was a place to escape as quickly as possible. Great to see the fabulous work they have accomplished there.
My friend, don't full yourself, nobody returns to Rome. You need to rebuild it first. You the Comune of Rome! PS. And if you remember some history, I am sure you know what (or whom...) to begin with. 😈
Just pondering, if todays' engineers and brick-layers, could create something this PERFECT. The buildings, from stone and Roman Cement. Astounding, to mention the least ! Vertical, horizontal and all arches, etc, JUST PERFECT. ( Apparently, speed does kill......) regards to modern building methods, and materials. }}
Incredible! I was in Rom in the early 90's. I don't remember hearing about these baths and am wondering if this was opened after I was there. The Splendour of Rome.
Thanks for letting me know such an antiquity and part of Roman Empire, no matter it may not have thousands of items. So much important is the state of conservation, so we can have a better idea of what interested them,as well as their tools, weapons, and other items that give us an idea of how they live in that era. Thermal baths were part of their culture. Large spaces, columns and well decorated with mosaics and frescoes.
Rome would have had an incredible productive thriving economy no different to today with endless skilled craftsmen and trades , one can see the wealth they created with all the incredible construction they left behind and it is amazing that such an economy and civilisation existed back in time .
Your video are always dense, and well focused on the topic. In a classical way. i like it, it's a nice change from rambling in other people videos who have not prepared what they present. I think future museum will try to recreate the ambiance of a city or neighborhood or villa instead of exposing endless rows of artifacts behind glass. Try to make these artifacts live more, and not put them in a archive list.
yea... the music def could be a little ..... less. But, this guys looks GREAT in a sweater. most times sweaters do not look good on camera. but he can totally pull it off. :)
Great documentary! Cinematic! Idk what others are saying but I loved the music! Great editing! Lots of hard work been put into this just so people like me can appreciate history!
Hi Doc. Can you explain why there are so many cripts, urns and sarcophogi in that Bath? They must be later additions, since many of those cripts seem to have been built right in the middle of the bath public spaces and halls. Pls explain. Thanks
Deidia? Fistulae? (I can only guess at the spelling.) As a viewer, I wish these and other untranslated and, in some cases, untranslatable terms were placed on-screen as you mention them, preferably with a brief definition, especially for the undefinable ones. Simply dropping such terms as you speak is quite frustrating for the viewer. Great content, though.
Architecture is superior to warfare. The Parthenon, the Taj Mahal, the Great Wall of China, Saint Peter's Basilica... It is better to be a builder than a warrior. A true leader should leave a legacy carved out of stone, not out of blood...
A marvelous museo, clearly worth a long visit. I found the music, though, too loud, too long, and unnecessarily bombastic for the occasion. Also, I always wonder why people continue to resist the change from the Christian triumphalist "BC/AD" to the more universally compatible "BCE/CE". Go figure...
I was there long ago... It's amazing to stand in these areas... And consider the incredible amount of work that went into them....
This museum can be very rewarding if you put the effort into getting engaged with the exhibits.

Great tour of this museum. Putting it on my list… for whenever I return to Rome!
Excellent- glad you liked it.

Though it shouldn't be so loud as to be a distraction.

The Parthenon, the Taj Mahal, the Great Wall of China, Saint Peter's Basilica...
It is better to be a builder than a warrior.
A true leader should leave a legacy carved out of stone, not out of blood...
Why the nervous pompous music?
A bit overdone with the music... It's not an epic adventure.

Must shop for pants at the same place as the PBS Eons guy.
Horrible music
Yep, all Roman. Not Greek. 😂
Castrated Jehovah

What the heck you talking about. Don't disrespect the Almighty
