Roman life
Text z Príbehu
- Not for all of us. Whats so great about your daily life?
- Rome
- Rome is a amazing place if you have money
- Life is great in the roman empire
- Education
- us people in wealthier families we are tutored by are fathers, or often by slaves, until we’re about six years old. Then the boys went off to school. Classes were held in public buildings and private homes. Many of the tutors were educated Greek slaves.
- Many of us poor children in Rome were sent to work instead of to school. We learned trades, such as leatherworking and metalworking, to help earn money for our families.
- Food and drink
- It must be nice to have a kitchen in your home. We could only afford to have such a small grill to cook with. We weren't even able to get fast food so we bought cold food. If we are lucky for one of our dinners, we would have some fish chunks, asparagus, and pig for dessert.
- Romans lived in grand houses, built of stone and marble. Thick walls shut out the noise and dirt of the city. Inside the front door was a hall called an atrium where the family received guests. An indoor pool helped to keep the atrium cool. An opening in the roof let in plenty of light. The fanciest room was the dining room. Its walls were covered in pictures, both painted murals and mosaics made of tiles. Mosaics also decorated the floors. Graceful statues stood in the corners. Some dining rooms had beautiful fountains in the center to provide guests with cool water. During dinner parties, guests lay on couches and ate delicious meals prepared by slaves. While they ate, they listened to music played by slaves on flutes and stringed instruments, such as the lyre and the lute.
- Housing
- while the rich Romans were living their best lives, we are struggling to get apartments or houses to live in. We would mostly try to get a room in the tall apartments. The other Romans had delicious food, parties, and even could listen to music.
- Family Life
- us people in richer families, husbands often held well-paid political positions. Wealthy Roman women ran their households. They bought and trained the family's slaves. Many had money of their own and were active in business. They bought and sold property.Roman babies were usually born at home. The Romans kept only strong, healthy babies. If the father didn't approve of a newborn, it was left outside to die or to be claimed as a slave.
- While the rich Romans only had their husband to do the work, we have to work as hard as we can to provide for our families. They could even buy their own property. We would have to do years of work to get that much money.
- The ending.
- The end
- Only us rich had kitchens in their homes. Thermopylae where people could buy hot and cold foods that were ready to eat. Even the rich often bought their daytime meals at thermoplastic because the service was fast and convenient.
