Picture of an insulaeFor each Roman class (lower, middle and upper class) you must: 

1. Present a picture of the building (and if necessary with grounds). You may draw it yourself, but you may copy a picture from the internet.

2. Make a floor plan of such a building (and grounds). If you can find one on the internet, you may use it.

  • each part of the building and/or the grounds must be labelled with a letter of the alphabet or a number

  • each part of the floor plan needs its own colour.

part of a floorplan

3. Give each part of the house (or grounds) a name. Use the Latin names.

4. Give a description of each part of the building

 

You'll have to present your information on three A4-sheets, preferably made using the computer.

  • One sheet for the lower class, another for the middle class and the third for the upper (or wealthy) class.

  • One side of the paper is used for the picture of the building.

  • Beneath it there must be a short description of the building. Don't forget to write down for which class the building is meant.

  • On the other side the floor plan must be made.

  • Beneath the floor plan, you write the letters (or numbers) of the floor plan. Each letter is followed by the Roman word for that part of your plan of the building and/or grounds

  • Immediately followed by a description of that particular spot on the plan.
    For example:

    • A = Culina = Kitchen, this is the place where the Romans prepared their food.

  • Staple the three papers together.
  • Put your name and class at the top of each paper.
