Let's explore a little known dome from imperial Rome, dating to the time of Constantine. It was once part of a larger complex of the emperors. After a long restoration, it is now possible to visit the site. Join Darius inside the domed hall to explore its stunning engineering and architecture. It's been known as the Temple of Minerva Medica, but we'll explore its true nature in this episode.
