- Deep within the heart of the British Museum is a mysterious and strange artefact - a telephone that only appears when inquisitive children have burning questions about history for British Museum curators.
This time the History Hotline appears on Roman archaeology curator Carolina de Lima’s desk, which means some of you must be studying the ancient Roman empire! This video was created in collaboration with schools, to work as an educational resource for ages 7-11 years, but it’s also great for families and adults to enjoy too!
If you want to find out even more about the ancient Roman empire, our exhibition Legion: life in the Roman army is on until June 23, 2024.
Find out more here: bitly.cx/L6f4
Children under 16 get free entry when accompanied by an adult.
You can also explore our educational resources and programming on our website. bitly.cx/z5LRI

This woman has such a warm and elegant personality.
I do hope you managed to focus on the content of the video as well!
1:58 It covered less than 1/4 of Europe.
Fortunately for the surviving civilised world, their vulgar onslaught of destruction and defilement appears to have been halted at a small village in NW Armorica.
9:45 For most of its existence, Greek was the Roman Empire's official language. This begain in 610 AD, long before the Empire's half way point in 740 AD.
Portland Vase.....Yea...!!!!
It's the TARDIS hot line...

How much human remains are in the British museum? I know it’s over 6,000 but I want to know if the actual number is know.
Adorable
Why does she keep hanging up the phone on kids...?😳
History Hotline | Your daily reminder to think about The Roman Empire | with Carolina Rangel de Lima 0943am 31.5.24 sounds like my kindda job - having to look after the place whilst it's closed... as for roman empire. i thought about it and concluded all our royal thrones are based on it and even the paltry reformation even had to have holy see consent to enact it's primitive work ethic. sad day for libertarians...
11:10 - 11:15 I find it kinda funny that they changed her wording from "strong and fit" to "strong and healthy" when they put it on the screen
Fit has several definitions whereas healthy has one.
@@l.m.2404 I think someone being "fit" in the sense of fit for the military would include healthy. Also, you can't just change people's words they said because you THINK one makes more sense than what they actually said
Tell that to AI. Lol
@@l.m.2404 What does any of this have to do with AI?
What? Do you think that a real stenographer sits by to transcribe?
British museum ❌
Chor bazar ✔️
Dear Dr. de Lima,
Could you please just answer the questions;
For instance:
The Roman Empire lasted for just shy of 1500 years, starting with Emperor Augustus in 30 B.C.E
and ending with Emperor Constantine IX in 1452 AD.
Kindly avoid going on tangents.
If you think you're better why aren't you employed by the British Museum? Or try doing this on your own channel which I'm sure is very popular.
You get that the idea was to make this for children, right? They need some context and stuff that is more accessible for them. Your answer is so dry and would leave a child with more questions.
@@CrisSelene Well, I never heared back from the Brittish Museum.
Lack of self confidence and technical skill
(Got a mic., no idea how to use it)
explains my lack of channel
You are right, the first draft was rather dry,
try this:
"The Roman Empire lasted just shy of 1500 years.
It began after a bloke calles Gaius Julius Caesar,his mates Pompey and Crassus;
Devised a sneaky little plot to overthrow the Roman Republic. Since none of them survived the conspiracy, Caesars cousin Octavian inherited the title of Princeps Empirator.
A head of the Senate, and totally not a king.
Romans where allergic to kings.
This pretend democracy lasted about 400 years, before somebody (I forgot who dissolved the senate) decided that this expensive pretense was not worth it.
But in those four hundred years the senate survived several mad emperors: including
Emperor Nero, who would recite his terrible songs to them.
Emperor Calligula, who was rumoured to have named his horse proconsul, which is like a lord in the house.
And Emperor Elagaballus, but that one is not suitable for children.
"
By the way, I'm unemployed, so if you want to hire me, just ask.
Bathroom? Come on, this is the BRITISH Museum!
he had phoenician descent not african he wasn't black
Ah, yes, random RUclips commenter - you really know more than a curator at the British Museum.
He was born in a Roman province in Libya, in North Africa. He was described as "of the Libyan Race". He was so far after the phoenicians that they shouldn't even enter into the picture here - but if you insist, his ancestors on his father's side were Punics who settled in North Africa, so technically yes, he is a distant descendant of the phoenicians.
And, come on. Look at his portrait. His honest-to-god made-during-his-life portrait. My man was black. End of story.
And anyway, she never referred to him as black. She referred to him as 'of African Descent'. So I genuinely don't understand what you're on about.
@@KelciaMarie1 Africa was a phoenician name for the province of roman Tunisia. it wasn't used by the romans to mean the continent of africa or to imply sub-Saharan africa or black africa. his portrait clearly show him as brown not black all soldiers were depicted in darker tune in roman paintings. not of him only.
@@starcapture3040 ... Tunisia is also in Africa. Just like Libya. And I'm not interested in having a bad faith argument. Have a day!
When are y’all going to give back all the stolen shit?
When did we start running museums for children instead of for research and and informed citizenry?
I'm sorry, I didn’t know that children are banned from museums where you're from
