Homes

The rich people had nicer homes than poor .

Romans lived in flats called insula . The top floor was worse than the bottom

floor. Rich Romans owned a town house and a

country house. Poor people would use public bathrooms . The rich Romans had luxurious homes that

sometimes contained 20 or 30 rooms.

ROMULUS AND REMUS

Romulus and Remus were twins. But one day their greedy uncle took them

to the River Tiber and hope they would be lost forever.

But they hit a branch and a she wolf came and got them.

A shepherd got them and kept them until they were young men.

Pompeii was a place in Italy.• It got covered in lava because a

volcano erupted. • The land was very good for growing

crops.• It was built right beside a volcano to

grow crops• The mount that erupted was called

Mount Vesuvius

Warriors

The Romans were defeated by the Celts at first because they were made up of a fake army.

Warriors had javelins, shields, pickaxe and swords .

They had sandals with nails studs . They would carry a pole to carry

luggage . Every legion would have had six

thousand legionaries.

Roman entertainment

Romans liked a lot of stuff for e.g. : the baths were one of the Romans favourite thing to do.

The baths were really dirty that we would find strange today.

They would exercise swim and have fun in the baths.

The other thing they would like is the Amphitheatre.

Fashion and clothes

They would wear a toga both boy and girl. A toga was a large piece of cloth wrapped

around the body and over the left shoulder. Women would wear jewellery from head to
