Episode three of our special re-edited Rome series dives deeper into the monarchy—where assassination, ambition, and unlikely succession plans start shaping Rome into something recognizable. These episodes were originally part of our decade-by-decade podcast, now re-released to let you binge through early Rome without interruption.
Lucius Tarquinius Priscus is assassinated by the sons of Ancus Marcius—but don’t worry, his widow’s got a plan. And what better solution than to make that blessed slave the next ruler of Rome?
It’s Rome, so of course that makes sense. This episode sets the stage for one of the most fascinating and unlikely successions in Roman history. You’ll want to hear how it all goes down.
This is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie Maopolski.
