The ancient Romans did not have "big box" or multi- layered department stores as we have. Their shopping was done on only one level. Yes, I'm aware of the so-called "Trajan's Markets" but recent research has proven that they were not "markets" at all, but were used for some cultural purposes. There would have been no way for the merchants to get their cartloads of goods to the rooms, due to the narrow corridors and steep steps.
