CASA ROMANA • Wealthier Romans would typically live in fancy villas
• These were mostly situated on the Palatine Hill in Rome
• Because Roman family structure maintained the ties with their extended family, large homes were needed to house all of the relatives
• Married women lived with their new husbands
• Aunts, uncles, sons and their wives, grandparents and slaves all needed room to stay

INSULAE • Insulae are similar to modern day apartments
• Typically, these buildings were no more than three stories tall but could house up to twenty families
• These were the residences of Rome’s poorest families
• Often, one family would share one large room
• These structures were extremely unsafe
• The close quarters were a hotbed for disease
• The buildings themselves were susceptible to fire

TABERNA, TABERNAE • A taberna is a small shop or tavern, selling anything from cheese to wine to clothing, et
cetera.
• Even wealthy Romans often rented out the front rooms of their houses as shops for merchants.
• Because these rooms had separate doors that opened on to the street, they did not interfere with the rest of the house in any way and acted as a natural buffer between the noise of the street and the peace within the home
• The exterior of a Roman house, normally quite close to the street, was relatively plain.

IANUA, IANUAE • The actual door of the house, the ianua opened into a long corridor, the vestibulum that
led into the atrium.
• Some doorways were adorned with wall paintings, especially those that were dedicated to the two-faced god of doorways, Janus, or symbols of good luck and prosperity
• Ianuae were typically guarded by a ianitor, a doorkeeper.

VESTIBULUM, VESTIBULI • The vestibulum was a long hallway that extended from the ianua to the atrium
• Wealthy Romans (patrons) would meet their clients in this area
• The floors of the vestibulum were often decorated with mosaics, spelling out a message of “Greetings” for the visitor or “Welcome Money.”
• Some warned would-be thieves to “Beware of the Dog” that would protect the family from unwelcome visitors

ATRIUM, ATRII • The atrium was a large, one-to-two story, well-ventilated room that was connected to all
other rooms and was lighted by an opening in the roof
• This opening, called a compluvium, would allow water to collect in this room
• It was the formal room where guests were received and clients assembled to wait for their customary morning visits to their patron
• Thus the atrium was important for business, social gatherings and politics
• The atrium almost never contained furniture but was always well decorated, as the home owner aimed to impress and would often hold the shrine to the Lares and Penates
![Page 12: CASA ROMANA - Welcome to Bellevue West Latin! · CASA ROMANA • Wealthier Romans would typically live in fancy villas • These were mostly situated on the Palatine Hill in Rome](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051606/60164cb48cff072fe3361e5e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

IMPLUVIUM, IMPLUVII PISCINA, PISCINAE • In the center of the atrium, directly beneath the opening in the roof was a shallow pool,
the impluvium. This had the practical purpose of collecting rainwater but also added greatly to the attractiveness of the room.
• Sometimes, wealthy Romans would put fish in their pool. If they did this, the pool was called a piscina
• Impluvii and piscinae could also be found in an area we will learn about soon, the peristylium
![Page 14: CASA ROMANA - Welcome to Bellevue West Latin! · CASA ROMANA • Wealthier Romans would typically live in fancy villas • These were mostly situated on the Palatine Hill in Rome](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051606/60164cb48cff072fe3361e5e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

CUBICULUM, CUBICULI • Cubicula were small rooms used for a number of different purposes
• On the upper story (if they had one) and in the interior of the house, a cubiculum often functioned as a bedroom
• Bedrooms were often furnished with no more than a sleeping couch and a small chest
• The small cubicula off the atrium may have been used for private meetings, libraries, and other things
![Page 16: CASA ROMANA - Welcome to Bellevue West Latin! · CASA ROMANA • Wealthier Romans would typically live in fancy villas • These were mostly situated on the Palatine Hill in Rome](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051606/60164cb48cff072fe3361e5e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

ALA, ALAE • The atrium frequently opened out into two “wings” which were two rooms that faced each
other
• Not much is known about their function, and they appear to just be open areas of space used for storage
• In homes of the wealthy patricians, this area may have held the death masks of their ancestors
![Page 18: CASA ROMANA - Welcome to Bellevue West Latin! · CASA ROMANA • Wealthier Romans would typically live in fancy villas • These were mostly situated on the Palatine Hill in Rome](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051606/60164cb48cff072fe3361e5e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

TRICLINIUM, TRICLINII • The triclinium was named after the three couches typically found in the dining rooms of
upper-class Romans.
• The lectus, or couch, was an all-purpose piece of furniture. Different sizes and shapes of lecti were used for sleeping, conversing, and dining. These couches were fairly wide because each couch held three diners, who reclined on their left side resting on large cushions while slaves served them multi-course meals
• A chair with a back (cathedra) was considered suitable only for women or old men.
• Dining rooms, like other rooms in the Roman house, often had beautifully painted walls

CULINA, CULINAE
• The culina or kitchen was usually small, dark, and poorly ventilated and was situated in a distant, isolated area of the house. • Sometimes the wealthy did have running water to this room
� Wealthy Romans did not prepare meal themselves, as that was the job of their numerous household slaves • For this reason, Romans did not care if the room was hot and smoky.
� Baking was done in ovens, whose tops were utilized to keep dishes warm. Embers from the oven could be placed below metal braziers for a form of “stove-top” cooking

TABLINUM, TABLINI • Directly beyond the atrium was a room open on two sides, though both sides could be closed
with curtains or folding doors. • The tablinum contained the family records and the chest containing family finances.
• Elite families would also display the imagines, which were busts of famous ancestors. • The master of the house, the paterfamilias, would greet his many clients on their morning
visits and used this room as a study • Like the rest of the house, the tablinum often had an attractive mosaic floor and wall paintings
![Page 24: CASA ROMANA - Welcome to Bellevue West Latin! · CASA ROMANA • Wealthier Romans would typically live in fancy villas • These were mostly situated on the Palatine Hill in Rome](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051606/60164cb48cff072fe3361e5e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

PERISTYLIUM, PERISTYLII • The peristylium was an open courtyard of one to two floors within the house; the columns,
often surrounding the hortus, supported a shady roofed portico whose inner walls were often embellished with elaborate wall paintings
• Sometimes the lararium, a shrine for the gods of the household, was located in this portico, or it might be found in the atrium.
• The courtyard might contain flowers and shrubs, fountains, benches, sculptures and even piscina.

BALNEUM, BALNEI LATRINA, LATRINAE • Only present in the homes of the wealthy, the balneum was the equivalent of a bathroom.
There was a small toilet-like structure and occasionally a small pool for minor personal cleaning.
• N.B: While Romans did eat to excess and purge their food, there is no truth to the myth that there were separate rooms built into the homes of the wealthy, called a vomitorium, for this purpose.
