My YouTube feed has been (pleasantly) taken over by ancient Rome videos where historians and archaeologists cover how various Roman inventions and buildings worked.
I don't think people realize how far ahead of everyone else Rome was at that time.
Like most people know that Rome had aqueducts bringing in water to the city, but they probably don't know that water was supplied to different buildings directly, and you could pay to get a line installed straight to your house. Running water in your house, 2000 years ago!
