Gods and monsters, wandering heroes and barefooted philosophers.
That's how we often think about ancient Greece.
But it's much more varied and more curious than that.
I'm Mary Beard, and in Being Greek, my new podcast from BBC Radio 4, I'll be telling the stories of the real people of ancient Greece.
From a mobster with dangerous ambitions.
If you're a would-be emperor, then emperors have power to do whatever the hell they like, really.
To the unrepentant husband who's murdered his wife's lover.
