Initially, Latin plays were modelled on Greek plays. The Romans also thought that the Greek language was more suited to abstract concepts and better for rhetoric and philosophy. The Roman elites were educated in both Latin and Greek and spoke Greek fluently. The Romans were fascinated by Greek mythology and linked their gods to the Greek gods and their myths.

Architecture and sculpture were modelled on that of the Romans. Roman myths were commonly used in painting. Roman rhetoric was taught at school.
