About this listen

In "The Roman Empire the Empire of the Edomite," William Beeston throws a curveball at history, proposing a bold connection between the mighty Romans and the ancient Edomites of Jordan. Published in 1853, this controversial book dives deep into both groups' history and culture, searching for evidence of a shared ancestry. Beeston links similarities in language, customs, and even religion to paint a picture of the Romans as descendants of the Edomites. While mainstream historians largely reject his arguments due to lack of concrete proof, the book remains a fascinating exploration of these intertwined civilizations, offering a unique perspective on their origins and interactions.
