Religious persecution wasn’t a new thing for Rome, but under the rule of Valerian they intensified. Christians were now the specified target, but the executions and confiscation of property did little to help the stability of the empire.
Episode II of 'Valerian'.
Guest: Associate Professor Caillan Davenport (Head of the Centre for Classical Studies at the Australian National University).
