At the Forum Magnum (the Romans called it Forum or Forum Magnum, Roman Forum is a modern term) in Rome there was also the aerarium (the treasury) the tabularium (the state archives) and the regia, the residence of the pontifex maximus, the head of the Roman state religion, and the rostra, a platform for public speeches and debates on the northern side of the comitium, an open-air public meeting space where the popular assemblies net and were officers of state were elected during the Roman Republic.
Rome had several fora venalia (plural of forum venalium): the forum boarium (cattle market), forum vinarium (wine market) forum piscarium (fish market), forum suarium (meat market), forum pistorium (bakers' market), forum holitorium (vegetable market) and forum cuppedinis (delicatessen market). Rome also had a number of other fora dotted around the city whose trade and location are not known.
Besides the fora venalia, there were many shops on the Argiletum, a street to the east on the Forum Magnum, and the centre of the book trade, was in the nearby Vicus Sandaliarius. The Velabrum, an area west of this forum, there were traders in foodstuff, oil, wine and incense.
