About

Made with care, shared with passion

Spoken Past is written, researched, and maintained by me, Caiden Pannell. I created the site from scratch because I wanted a space where ancient history could be presented with clarity, credibility, and focus.

Every article is the product of careful research. The aim is not just to retell, but to explain with evidence, keeping the writing accessible while grounded in scholarship. Pages are fast, secure, and free of ads — a space to read without distraction.

Donations help cover the real running costs: hosting, bandwidth, storage, and keeping the site stable as it grows. They also give me more time to expand the archive, refine existing articles, and add features that make reading smoother.

Support is never required. I do this because I care about the subject and want to share it freely. But if you value the work and want to help keep it alive and growing, even a small contribution makes a great difference.
