Life in a Roman Villa by Brenda Williams

When the Romans came to Britain in AD 43, they brought a new style of domestic life, one that better-off Britons soon copied.? This informative guide looks at how villas were built, and at the accommodation and daily life villa residents enjoyed - their living rooms and bedrooms, kitchens and baths, gardens and courtyards, furniture and food, and the servants and slaves who kept the villa running. ? Illustrated with site photos from Roman villas around Britain, archaeological treasures, and museum reconstructions of villa interiors, this is a fascinating look at life in Roman Britain before the Roman army left in AD 406 and the villa way of life faded into history. ? Includes a list of places to visit.
