In Ancient Rome where did the soldiers sleep?

Answer 1

The rich slept in detached houses with an inner garden called domus.

Most Romans lived in apartment blocks called insulae (singular, insula, island). The poor lived on the upper floors which were the least desirable because of the extra stairs and they were less safe in case of fire and, therefore, were cheaper to rent. The apartments on these floors were small and only had small rooms for sleeping. There was no running water, heating, cooking facilities or toilets. The poor went there only to sleep. During the day they and lived outdoors. They ate outdoors, went to outdoors public toilets, and went to the public baths. The insulae were up to six or seven floors. Despite height restrictions, some reached eight or nine floors. Originally they were built in timber and mud brick, later chap concrete was used. Fires and collapses were a common problem, made worse by the fact that they were often built cheaply by speculators. Fires could spread quickly because the insulae were densely packed, often separated only by alleys. After the Great Fire of Rome (64 AD) Nero ordered that the insulae were to be spaced out, built in brick, and faced by porticos on wide roads. Even so, they remained prone fires and collapses because of poor building quality.

The middle class lived on the lower floors of the insulae which were larger and more expensive and had running water. On the ground floor there were shops and workshops.

Answer 2

Typically in the slave quarters. Some of these were barely more than shacks or outbuildings such as barns. The vast majority in the US had family houses. Some house servants actually slept in special quarters attached to the main house. Some slept in the back rooms of the masters' businesses and acted as nighttime security. Some slept in stables and barns.

Overall, pre-Civil War slaves in the US actually had a higher standard of living than non-slave owning, subsistence farmers and white sharecroppers of the same period. Most of the stereotypes are not factual. While the institution of slavery was heinous, and these people were actually legally property of another person, wrong in so many ways, the cost of purchasing slaves and keeping them so that the farms and plantations could remain profitable was so high, mistreatment and abuse of slave, while it did happen, was the exception, not the rule.
