Roland 'Roly' Keates aka Lost Histories

Welcome to my channel; I love history, research and everything else that presents itself to me. 

This channel doesn't concentrate on one subject, as my interests are wide and varied. 

I add video blogs about my Druidry practice, walks in the county, and days out in Derbyshire and beyond. History research and documentary films I have made and produced with a team. 

I'm not a qualified historian or researcher, but many historians, teachers, and students have cited my work in academic papers. I have written on such subjects as "Alienor of Aquitaine" and "The Head of Medusa In Paintings and Symbols". 

I have a good reputation within the academic community and can cite my work if anyone asks. I try to make my videos enjoyable; I don't claim to be on the same par as Lucy Worsley or Herodotus. I'm not as clear spoken as Liam Neeson or Morgan Freeman, but Ive never had Elocution lessons.
