Here we have a video heavily linked to the next History Time documentary - Liutprand of Cremona's account of his diplomatic mission to Constantinople; an effort to find a bride for his Emperor's son, Otto II of the Holy Roman Empire. Suffice to say, he and the then Byzantine Emperor Nikephoros II Phokas do not see eye to eye... How do we actually know about history? Voices of the Past is a channel dedicated to recreating the original accounts from the people who lived through events, or who lived far closer to them than we do today. We do this word for word, with an accompanying soundtrack of rousing music and images. — Thanks for watching!
