@@ProWalks Hard times? Us moderns could never survive those times! Us moderns cant even build a road thats last 2 yrs, a building for that matter~ No, sir, we are living in hard times, because our minds depend on easy solutions, that make our lazy times easy~
You deserved an award just for showing up in 33C on a very sunny day! Beautiful video as always! You are the best youtuber for walks, no one else I've seen has such a steady hand and proper equipment either!
I have no words to say how much I enjoyed this video, I love this kind of tour that brings knowledge of history, finally thank you very much dear friend
I have the honor of working for the Sepino-Altilia Archaeological Park. We are waiting for you for another walk in the fantastic scenery of the Saepinum ruins. We also look forward to seeing you at the Museum and at the many ongoing exhibitions. P.s. you have forgotten the Baths of Porta Bojano, you will be able to remedy this as soon as you return also because we are carrying out excavations for the total exhumation of the thermal plant, and therefore perhaps you will be able to admire the whole of the baths and the archaeological finds that will return to the light of the sun
Hey, thanks for the invite. I would love to go back. I really enjoy the Saepinum ruins. I went there with my family a couple times before I filmed this walk. I will try to return next spring. I can't wait to see what the excavations have uncovered.
The fascinating thing about Italy is that you can go from driving on a highway and stopping at a restaurant to going straight into the 1st century in just a few meters of walking distance.
So true! I lived in Southern Italy (Brindisi) and I could drive a short way and find myself in no man's land. The tranquil beauty of that region was relaxing.
Thank you so much of taking me there for the visit. So quiet. The wild flowers and vegetation are so pleasant to the eyes. I wonder if some experts have used computer to reconstruct such historical architectural sites to benefit people's eyes.
Hey, thanks for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I haven't seen any computer reconstructions but it sure would be nice to see. I know this walk isn't for everyone but I sure found the place interesting to walk around.
Good morning my friend well it's must be Saturday my favorite guy with these awesome videos yesterday I watched last week video again I was so relaxing yesterday it's always good to watch replays it's like I always miss something thank you so much relaxing watching ❤️❤️
Amazing 👌 what a peaceful views. you always catch a awesome shots, really soothing. I always says, it seems like we are walking with you.. Huge respect from Pakistan.. stay blessed 👍❤️
Nice vid. Those diagonal rock walls are cool to look at and kind of brilliant. They probably do very well in earthquakes because forces are dissipated vertically almost like an arch, not only that but by their lack of uniformity they should also deal well with those same lateral forces. Only their size/weight holds them back. Imagine that scaled up. Would be cool to see.
Thank you very much, I have never heard or read about this town, worth visiting of course, however I am interested in ancient Rome . Also because of pleasing lack of crowds...
Me gustan mucho sus videos , pero le tengo una sugerencia , podria mostrarnos los museos que se muestran en los lugares que visita? ojalá tomara en cuenta mi petición , obviamente si dentro del boleto de entrada esá incluida la visita . Mil gracias ¡¡¡
When was the grain wheel operated? Corn didn't come to Europe until Christopher Columbus came from America. I'm not being picky I don't know everything but I'm curious. I love your tours I always watch them. I find the informative and also relaxing. Thank you.
You're probably right. I found that info on the sign at the park though. People have been living there in those newer buildings so maybe the mill remained operational until the 16th 17th century.
Что то Я не вижу аккведуков и завода про производству цемента, и камней. А так ваше видео великолепно Я и не знал что этот город есть, Куда делись люди город в полне хорошем состоянии, я бы там хотел бы жить, надстроял бы крышу, и все , пробурил бы скважину, может тама есть вода, и стал бы жить. Что скажешь. Вы бы хотели бы жить во времена Древнего Рима ? Я бы да, если бы у меня была бы шапка невидимка.
I had to come back here, curiosity follows me, there were two moments that I wanted to know more about them, it was at minute 55:59 that square fenced area and at minute 56:59 if it is possible to talk about it I would appreciate it
From Wikipedia: Opus reticulatum (also known as reticulate work) is a facing used for concrete walls in Roman architecture from about the first century BCE to the early first century CE. They were built using small pyramid shaped tuff, a volcanic stone embedded into a concrete core. Opus reticulatum was generally used in central and southern Italy with the exception being its rare appearance in Africa and Jericho.[ This was because of tuff’s wider availability and ease of local transport in central Italy and Campania compared to other regions. Reticulate work developed in response to the advent of opus caementicium and its predecessor, opus incertum.[ This was to accommodate both the new building material and the growing demands of urbanisation in Rome through the creation of opus reticulatum, a method more uniform and accessible to unskilled labourers. The need for quicker and easier techniques led to a decline in popularity allowing for the rise of brickwork as a more convenient alternative, especially after the Great Fire of 64 CE
Right when I walked through the entrance, there was a private residence there on my left. Also, as I walked towards the Benevento Gate, there is a private residence there too.
Sites like this one that have received earthquake damage over the ages and the recent terrible quake in Turkey/Syria remind one of the fact of the vulnerability of this type of construction in stone etc. Of course the Romans had no choice but to use stone - it was virtually the only material readily available. The best type of construction for earthquake prone areas would be of adobe, single level, re-enforced with wire mesh. Of course the ruins of such places would not be as picturesque!
OMG, how beautiful, restful and peaceful is this place - it's like a refuge from the incessant noise and insanity of the modern world.
My imagination sees this town in its full glory. People walking about, children playing, and the sounds of life.
Such a beautiful location!
Yeah, I'm sure there was lot of hard times, but it was definitely a beautiful place to live.

You're right...we wouldn't survive. I'd call that hard times. :)
Very nice place and historic scenery.
Thanks for sharing dear friend.
Your Saepinum walk is so impressive.
Big like.
I wish you a happy Sunday...👍👍
Чудова відео і я дякую Вам за це!

Thank you very much for you videos, you show places I'm not likely to see in my lifetime, I really appreciate it...
The Arch of Nezario Prisco! Wow! Just wow.
I have no words to say how much I enjoyed this video, I love this kind of tour that brings knowledge of history, finally thank you very much dear friend
Exactly the words I was looking for. You said it all thanks.

What a treat to end with
Lol..I thought people would like that.:)
@@ProWalks We like your archaeological walks the best :)
What a calm and silent place. Love the sound of footsteps on gravel.
Italy is wonderful
E meravigliosa

4:39 More west than north, if I may say so. Great video, btw. Loved the little reptile darting along the top of the stones at 24:00!
Wow so beautiful and peaceful.
Little towns and villages, the most beautiful scenaries and ¡¡archeological sites¡¡¡ great channel.
That intro was top tier! Solid... Lots of work
What a wonderful place and one I had never heard of - please thank your workmate for letting you in on the “secret”. 👍👍👍👍👍

Fantastic, as always!
Thanks for bring us this video!
Thank you so much for this tour. So few escorted tours out of the US visit these equally important but often overlooked wonderful Roman sites.
Itália eternamente linda

Nice 👍...watching from Karachi Pakistan 🇵🇰...huzaifa lifestyle
Amazing 👌 what a peaceful views. you always catch a awesome shots, really soothing. I always says, it seems like we are walking with you.. Huge respect from Pakistan.. stay blessed 👍❤️
Fantastic video. A relatively unknown historic site, your presentation was great. If we ever make it to Italy, may have to go see it.

Hey, thanks for watching! Yeah, it's always interesting to see how things were constructed in the past.
Excellent! I knew this place. I was surprised that you went 😃👍
Beautiful. You should visit the region during autumn and winter, it's even more beautiful.
Thank you very much, I have never heard or read about this town, worth visiting of course, however I am interested in ancient Rome . Also because of pleasing lack of crowds...
really welldone, ty
Hola. Muy buen video. A que hora fuiste? No hay gente. Cuanta tranquilidad. Saludos
Me gustan mucho sus videos , pero le tengo una sugerencia , podria mostrarnos los museos que se muestran en los lugares que visita? ojalá tomara en cuenta mi petición , obviamente si dentro del boleto de entrada esá incluida la visita . Mil gracias ¡¡¡

corn is not the only cereal that exists, and bread, pasta, beer, cakes, etc are not even made today using that type of flour.

Very interesting Isaac . Do you know of good quiet Mt town in the Italian alps , that is well kept and off the tourist path. ¿ Grazie
what a simple Roman town in Molise,Campobasso...
Now I've got Spring Fever...
❤️
Another great walk, but, for some reason, my LG Nano refuses to play this, and your last video in 4k! 🤔
Thank you! But for the first time I saw a wall that consists of bricks standing at an angle of 45 degrees. Does anyone know why?

I had no idea about this.
It amazes me how people actually live in the middle of no where.
Well..we don't all want to be in 15 minute cities. :)
✌👍👍👍👏
Ciao Isaac, spero che adesso to parli di piu l'italiano. I have a question; Is this town completely deserted?
Right when I walked through the entrance, there was a private residence there on my left. Also, as I walked towards the Benevento Gate, there is a private residence there too.
I’d rather visit this place over the touristy positano or portofino!

400 years old town, destroyed by the flood of 17c
