Ancient Rome study.

We are working our way through the Ancient Roman Empire and having a lot of fun.  Here are a few things we have been working on so far.
We started off with a DVD which covered a lot of the topics in the books that I had already picked out.

This was a great DVD.
We are still using our Evan-Moor Ancient Rome History pocket. 
We read about daily life and the layout of the Roman houses.
Here is a cookbook with a few foods that were eaten in Ancient Rome.
This is a child's Bulla.  It is a given by the dad as a good luck charm.  If you had a boy, he would wear it until he was 14 and maybe wear it on special occasions.  If you had a girl, she would wear it until she was 14 also and then pack it away with other childhood items.
This is a really neat book I found by accident.  The whole book is written like a newspaper.
