Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    we know from different descriptions of Ancient Rome that the residences in the Imperial City were divided into two distinct classes—that of domes and insular, the previous being the dwellings of the Roman nobles, and corresponding to the modern Palazzi, while the final were the habitations of the middle and inferior classes. Each insular consisted of several sets of apartments, generally let out to different families, and was frequently surrounded by shops.

    The houses explained by Mr. Pollen come into view to have had no higher story, however as floor turned out to be spare precious in Rome, houses were constructed to such a loftiness as to be a font of danger, and in the time of Augustus there were not merely severe rules as to structure, however the height was restricted to 70 feet. The Roman furniture of the time was of the mainly expensive type.

    Tables were prepared of granite, gold bars, silvery, and sculpture, and were imprinted, covered, and developed by valuable stones. The principal timbers applied were cedar, sulk, emerald, cinders, beech, and maple. Ivory was a lot applied, and not merely were the arms and legs of sofas and seats imprinted to symbolize the appendages of animals, as has been renowned in the Egyptian, and Greek drawings, although other fractions of furniture were decorated by statues in bas release of topics taken as of Greek legends and fable.
