Lost Roman Cities: Destroyed Historical Places from Ancient Rome (4 in 1)

This book consists of 4 titles. It's a bundle for the following topics:

Carthage - Carthage, the great rival of Rome, emerged as one of the most influential civilizations of the ancient world. Located on the northern coast of Africa, in present-day Tunisia, Carthage’s origins are steeped in both myth and history. According to legend, the city was founded by Queen Dido, a Phoenician exile fleeing her homeland of Tyre. This tale, immortalized by Virgil in the epic Aeneid, speaks to the enduring allure of Carthage as a place of resilience, ingenuity, and ambition.

Ephesus - Ephesus, once one of the most important cities in the ancient world, holds a unique place in both Greek and Roman history. Situated on the coast of Asia Minor, in what is modern-day Turkey, the city’s ruins stand as a testament to its grandeur and cultural significance. Founded in the 10th century BCE by Ionian Greeks, Ephesus flourished as a thriving center of trade, religion, and politics. Over the centuries, it became a key player in the Mediterranean world, especially during the Roman Empire, when it became one of the largest and wealthiest cities in the region.

Herculaneum - Herculaneum, often overshadowed by its more famous neighbor, Pompeii, is a remarkable archaeological site that offers an invaluable glimpse into daily life during the Roman Empire. Located in the Campania region of southern Italy, Herculaneum was once a prosperous seaside town, thriving with elegant villas, bustling streets, and a vibrant population.

Pompeii - Pompeii, an ancient Roman city nestled in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, boasts a history as fascinating as its dramatic demise. Founded around the 7th or 6th century BCE by the Oscans, an Italic tribe, the city initially grew as a small settlement strategically positioned near the Bay of Naples.
