Nat Geo Live: The Ghosts of Pompeii with Caitie Barrett
What can the ruins of Pompeii tell us about the people who lived there nearly 2,000 years ago?
Join archaeologist Caitie Barrett for an unforgettable journey into the ancient city of Pompeii as part of the Rae Dorough Speaker Series at The Bankhead.
Volcanic ash preserved an unparalleled glimpse into the daily lives of the people who lived, worked, worshipped, and played in this remarkable Roman city. Now, archaeologist Caitie Barrett takes us into the field and behind the scenes of the latest excavations, uncovering new stories that still lie buried beneath the surface.
Barrett is an Associate Professor of Classics at Cornell University and co-director of the Casa della Regina Carolina archaeological project at Pompeii. Her work explores everyday life, household archaeology, religion, ritual, and cross-cultural interactions in the ancient Mediterranean.
National Geographic Live brings explorers from the field to your city—live on stage. Come discover what Pompeii can reveal about the people who called this extraordinary place home.
