Visit to the Archaeological Site of Vega Baja in Toledo (Spain)

¡AVE!


In the 17th of October we were in the Second Opening Day of the Archaeological Site of Vega Baja in Toledo (Spain).

It was a really interesting experience, because the archaeologists that are working in the site are the ones that show you the site too. The explanation took one hour but in any moment was boring of to difficulty to understand, even for people like us that we don't have too much knowledge for the arqueological tecniques.

The site is quite big, an there is too much work to do for many years, but even in this moment you can appreciate its importance, because the "Códices" talk us that Toledo was the capital of visigodos reing, but until now, no one could discover any important visigodos traces in Toledo. For this reason this site will provide the confirmation.

From Ludus Gladiatorium Vulcanum, we encourage you to continue with this job, an many other that we know are being doing out of Toledo's walls. An we are sure, just in some time, this site will be a new point of interest for the people that every day visit Toledo.

Today we are going to speak about some videogames related to the gladitor's world and that we like them.

In this mini-game, from BBC's web, you have to equip three differents types of gladiators for their arena's fights. Only if the equipment is completely correct for that kind of gladiator, he will achieve the total victory.

This game has been released this year and is based in a several didactic books about history, that are well know over the world.
The video is really curious, because using really funny's mini-games, you learn a lot of silly little facts about the roman world.
