Babylon, a City for the Ages: Interview with Professor Lloyd Llewelyn-Jones

The city of Babylon has appeared in our episodes time and again over the past several years: as the center of empires, a victim of vicious conquest, a wealthy center of economic innovation, and even the place where Alexander the Great drew his last breath. Professor Lloyd Llewelyn-Jones joins me to discuss his new, comprehensive, and fascinating new book on Babylon's long and engaging history. Patrick has a brand-new history show! It’s called Past Lives, and every episode explores the life of a real person who lived in the past.
