Plasters, Mortars, and the Science of Roman Architecture with Dr. Marie Jackson

Head to the University of Utah with us this week as we have a scientific chat with Dr. Marie Jackson in Episode 14 of The Aggregate.  The talk gives a broad stroked look into the research of  volcanic materials used in ancient Rome, and the highly engineered, pyroclastic plasters that protect them.SHOW NOTES:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitruviushttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_architecturahttps://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Roman/home.htmlhttps://www.mollyoart.com/
