Ulisse guides us to discover the history of Greek civilization, the first great European civilization told at the time of its maximum splendor and which, expanding into the Mediterranean basin, gave rise in Italy to what we know today as Magna Graecia. The Greek cities, scattered across the Mediterranean, numbered almost 700. And of these, almost a third are located in Italy. In fact, and we will see it during the episode, Italy is a bit like a second Greece. Alberto Angela guides us on a spectacular visit to some of the most important archaeological sites in our territory: Paestum, Syracuse, Agrigento. Temples, theaters and palaces that still today tell us a lot about the Greeks and also about ourselves. We show you aspects of their daily life, the female figure and love relationships, social and political organization, sporting competitions, wars.
