Join Andrea & Paul as they dive into the Fall of the Roman Empire and how lead poisoning could have fueled the fire that lead to the destruction of this once dominant society. Ancient Romans LOVED their lead and the effects of lead poisoning could be seen rampantly throughout their society. And, unfortunately, these effects can also be seen today.
