About this ebook
The Romans were very much like us: incurably curious, talkative, malicious gossips.
However, there were no gossip-mags back then, or Twitter, or exposés on National TV...
The only vehicle the Romans had to feed their voracious appetite for their neighbour’s private life were graffito, and so they scribbled their tell-alls on the insula walls.
This is a little collection of salacious, vicious and delicious graffito featuring all our old favourites: Tiberius, Julius, Valerius, Caligula, and oh so many other bad mad Romans we so love to still gossip about!
