Why was the family important in Roman society?

The family was important in Roman society because it was the heart of Roman society. Evidence: "At the heart of Roman society was the family." More information; When Rome was a republic, large families were common. "Married children often lived in the same house with their parents and other relatives. The father closely watched over his wife and her activities. The law even allowed fathers to sell children into slavery or have them put to death. In later times, fathers lost some of this power, and wives gained some legal rights. Families had fewer children, and Romans were more likely to divorce and remarry"

Why was slavery the basis of roman society?

Slavery was not the basis of Roman society; for sure, it was an integral part of the economy, and the entire social system; however, it clearly was not the BASIS of Roman society, at any determinable period of the Roman Empire.The notion that slavery was the basis for the entire system is a good collection of catchwords, and notions, but it beggars the question of a really impressive society to which Western Civilisation owes a bunch.It's an easy school question which just misses the point of the last several thousand years. No problem; school teachers are overworked, and questions about Western Civilization don't always get remembered exactly.Slavery was a very important part of the culture; the role of women was a very important part of the culture; putting wine in lead containers was a very important part of the culture.


Was slavery the right way to live?

NO!!! In western society, slavery has never occurred since Roman times. Western society (Britain, France, Spain and Portugal), have traded in slaves from Africa to America. Hence African -Americans. In a more enlightened and free society, there is no slavery. Great Britain passed the Abolition of Slavery Act in 1833, 30 years before the American Civil War , which ended slavery in the USA.
