On a secluded beach on the outskirts of town, a young jogger finds a stranded man who wears a blue tunic and greets him in Latin. They walk to downtown where the stranger describes Roman Cadiz—the ancient city of Gades—twenty centuries ago. Incredulous, the youngster listens to his companion relate the ancient splendor of the metropolis with all sorts of details, inflaming his imagination. Under a dragon tree, the visitor points to the area where his home was located two thousand years ago. What transpired in the following 24 hours will have an enduring impact on the stunned resident and his fellow citizens.
