Archaeology
Emperor Augustus (born Octavius, the great-nephew of Julius Caesar)
According to Becca Saladin: “Ever because I was a child, I have actually been amazed by history and archaeology. I believe human beings view the past as a series of occasions; something like a film that we can’t truly feel or touch. I believe the important things that bring us closer to the past are those that really humanize us– the bodies from Pompeii, the completely preserved Inca mummies, the individual things of those long gone, and more.
I have actually constantly believed how amazing it would be to see historical occasions and individuals the method they really occurred and the way they really looked. I began Royalty Now in February of 2019, merely as a way for me to see my favorite historical figure, Anne Boleyn, as a modern woman. I desired to know if she could come to life from the couple of pale, flat pictures we have of her. I started the account to please my own interest about what members of the past would look like if they were standing right in front of me. I’m incredibly glad for the assistance and interest the account has actually gotten, and can’t wait to see what happens next.”
