Human Circus: Journeys In The Medieval World

This one will be a bit of a side step in the Fourth Crusade story. This is a story of furta sacra, or sacred theft, following the fall of Constantinople, and of one theft in particular. This the story of Saint Simon and how he came to Venice. The medieval Christmas card Kickstarter which I mentioned can be found here. If you like what you hear, my Patreon is here, my Ko-fi is here, and Paypal is here. I'm on Twitter @circus_human and my website is www.humancircuspodcast.com. Sources:  Geoffrey de Villehardouin.
