Joseph Chittenden
I design and publish books which recreate sites such as London, York, Colchester and others in Roman times. The books feature reconstructions using CGI (No AI) and modern day maps, allowing the reader to compare the past and the present.
The books are available online and in museums, cathedrals and bookshops across the United Kingdom. I enjoy researching historical information and working with archaeologists to show what Roman Britain once looked like.
