The ancient Roman public buildings were masterpieces of construction, combining beauty and and practicability. They were constructed of durable materials as evidenced by the Colosseum and the Pantheon. The beauty of the aqueducts such as the one in Segovia and the Pont

duGuard

proved that a water pipe could be both practical and attractive. As for the cons of Roman buildings, many of them in the city, were constructed of flimsy, second-grade

wood covered with plaster. These were the insulae

or multi-storied

apartments occupied by the lower classes, which either collapsed or were destroyed in a fire.
