Livia obtained a degree in Archaeology at the Sapienza University of Rome and has a Master's degree in the History and Conservation of Cultural Heritage from the University of Roma Tre. Her main field of interest is ancient Roman topography and early Christian architecture; however, she is an accomplished scholar whose teaching ability extends to the Renaissance and Baroque Rome. As a native Roman, Livia is very enthusiastic about sharing the deep love and knowledge she has for her hometown with clients.

Highly recommended, especially if you are interested in ancient religions.
This was a wonderful and informative seminar presented by Livia Galante on Mithras and the god's cult in ancient Rome. The presentation was clear, detailed and interesting -- and Livia's slides were very well thought-out and informative. I highly recommend this seminar!
