On Sunday, March 8 at 5:55 p.m., Jednotka continues the new original show STVR História chútiwhich combines knowledge with taste experience. She is accompanied by a pair of presenters Martina “Maca” Zábranská and Tibor Ferenčík. Welcome to Carnunta, which in the 2nd century grew from a military camp to the capital of the Upper Pannonia province and a key point on the Danube frontier of the Roman Empire.
Carnuntum was primarily a city of commerce, where patricians enjoyed life, artisans and merchants formed an honest middle class, and slaves stood at the very end. Here the Romans commanded legions, traded, built baths, roads, and led a completely normal city life. But they were not only interested in peace on the border, but also wine and good food.
Maca and Tibor are amazed to discover how advanced the Roman culture was, that in addition to the heated floor, the Romans also heated the walls. Together we will taste Roman cheesecake with bay leaves. Tibor discovers that undiluted wine was drunk only by drunkards and Maca is dumbfounded when she recognizes her vegetarian ancestors.
While getting to know the Roman culture, Mac and Tibor will also visit a typical bathhouse, where even beggars and people from the lower social classes could enter under certain circumstances. They will also learn that the sophistication of the Romans was also reflected in their hygiene. Such Caesar described Roman soldiers as clean-shaven, oiled, and fragrant.
The moderators will even try an unconventional way of washing, for which no water or soap was used in the 2nd century. See in the preview which two things Maca and Tibor can get by with and don’t miss it the premiere of História is already on Sunday at 5.55 pm on Jednotka.
