“Lugnano in Teverina: Life on the Tiber River 2000 Years Ago”: In the Italian village of Lugnano in Teverina, a teacher tells her students about a local boy connected to a special place for all the local people: the Roman villa of Poggio Gramignano. She takes the children to the villa excavation, where they meet Roberto, the archaeologist in charge. They learn that the boy, thanks to his intelligence and curiosity, discovered many interesting things about the origins of their region. The children come to know about the history of the excavations, Roberto's work as an archaeologist, and eventually what ties the boy to learning the origins of their village.
