r/AncientWorld is a subreddit with 117k members. The community frequently discusses ancient, archaeology, history, ancient civilizations, and roman.
A community for those of us who love to learn about and discuss life in the distant past. Ancient in this sense has a fairly specific meaning - it refers to the period from the first human written records until the end of Classical Antiquity. This is not the place to share pseudoscientific content, ancient conspiracy theories or modern interpretations of ancient spiritualism and shamanism - that content will be removed and posters banned.
