About this listen

You’ve heard of epic battles and mighty gods, but what about the theory that Alexander the Great was still alive as his body was being prepared for burial? This is the hidden face of ancient Greece where superstition ruled, omens guided kings, and history blurred into myth. These are the tales cloaked in mystery, culture and superstition. Get ready to learn more about unforgettable whispered legends and chilling truths rooted in history.

Here’s just a fraction of what’s inside:

  • The plague that crippled Athens and nearly changed history.
  • The disturbing mystery behind Alexander’s death and delayed burial.
  • Why some Spartan babies were never meant to survive.
  • The courtesan Neaira who defied ancient laws and rewrote her fate.
  • Echetlaeus, the ghostly hero with a farming tool who saved Greece.
  • Pytheas’s daring voyage beyond the known world.
  • The philosopher who leapt into a volcano to prove his divinity.
  • Chilling ends to some of Greece’s greatest thinkers.
  • And much, much more!

Whether you’re a history lover, mythology fan, or simply fascinated by the forgotten corners of the past, these tales of ancient Greece will make you rethink everything you thought you knew. Scroll up and click “Add to Cart” to uncover the stories where fact is often far stranger than fiction.
