Historian and broadcaster Dr Simon Elliott joins me to talk about this deification of Roman Emperors.

In 211 AD, Emperor Septimius Severus dies in Britain. He soon undergoes a strange and supernatural ceremony, one which has been central to imperial culture for decades. The dead Severus will be deified and made into a god to be worshipped in the Roman world.

How did this deification ceremony come to be introduced, how was it carried out and what impact did it have on the Roman Empire?
