During banquets people ate, were entertained and socialized. There were both public and private banquets. A private banquet was an elaborate dinner given by a wealthy person to celebrate an event or an anniversary of an event. The food would be extraordinary and exotic dishes could be on the menu. There was usually some sort of entertainment at a banquet which could be an acrobatic display, a mock gladiatorial bout, singing or poetry reciting or a combination of all. There were also public banquets given by the emperor and always given by a general who had celebrated a triumph. These public dinners were set up in the various fora around the city.

Mainly:

Legislative milestone's forming some of the structures still used today.

The Language... Italian, Portuguese's, Spanish, Romanian, French, etc., all these are direct descendants of Latin, the Romans's' language. Even if it may be hard to be noticed, it highly influenced the English language, too, even if it's not a direct descendant of Latin, but of some kind of German an French. Also they gave us newspapers, calenders, policemen, firemen, concrete, central heating and indoor plumbing! so much! Lol!

Because it is so heavy. and they want it to go quick. Correction.

The Roman racing chariots were extremely light and small, with bands of leather used for the flooring to reduce weight. Four horses made for a more exciting race, although there were also races with chariots pulled by two horses. The emperor Nero was said to have driven a chariot with ten horses.

A Roman litter was basically a carrying platform. It was a rectangular board with long side poles which were raised on the shoulders of slaves to transport people or goods. If it were a litter used by people, it generally had an awning with side curtains and the inside was lined with cushions. The wealthier the person, the more luxuriously, the litter. If it were used for carrying goods into the city, it was simply a basic board with poles.

Rome's greatest and most lasting legacy was concrete. Forget about the legal legacy, Rome's legal concepts are/were only relevant in the western world for many years and have only rather recently begun to spread in some form. However concrete is used all over the world and shows no sign of being completely replaced. So my vote is for concrete being Rome' greatest and most lasting legacy. Others may have differing opinions.

A "domus" was a house. It was usually occupied by middle to upper classed people. The sizes and neighborhoods varied depending on the owner's wealth.

The uprising of slaves in first Sicily 135-132 BCE, then again in Sicily 104-100 BCE, and then 73-71 BCE in peninsular Italy (led by the gladiator Spartacus).

They were put down with difficulty after initial successes, requiring the mobilisation of major military operations.

Although the ancient Romans did not have a goddess specifically for springtime, the festival honoring the goddess Flora, called the Floralia, was held in late April. This festival was celebrated with flowers decking all public buildings and temples and the people dressing in colorful clothing. Flora was the goddess of flowers and vegetation.

The LAtin for trade was commercium.

The most important commodity was grain which was needed to feed Rome's enormous population. Egypt supplied half of this. Other major producers were Tunisia, Sicily and Sardinia.

Spain exported gold, silver and other metals, olive oil, timber and horses. Gaul exported glass, wine and wool. Britannia exported metals and wool. Turkey and Syria exported timber, wool, olive oil, wine and horses. Greece exported manufactures. Egypt exported cotton, linen, papyrus, ivory, gemstones, ebony, ostrich feathers, leopard skins, lions, leopards and elephants.

Roman trade also reached Arabia, which exported incense and spices, Persia, which acted as an intermediary for the trade with China and India, China, which exported silk, and India which exported spices, herbs, sesame oil, sugar, limes, peaches, ebony, pearls and wild animals (tigers, rhinos, elephants, and snakes which were used for circus-type animal acts) and Ethiopia, which exported ebony and Ivory.

The Romans did not have a three-part government. The concept of a government with three branches is a modern one. it dates back to the 18th century, nearly 1,300 years after the fall of Rome.

Etruscans

Similarities: Steady Food Supply, Organized Government, Highly Developed Culture, Specialization, Division of Labor. (Although this division of labor was largely composed of slaves or citizens forced into labor, unlike today.)

Differs: Social Pyramid, Taxes were grains, Mud Brick Housing, Many gods, the Pharaoh was deified and had absolute power, rather than the republic that America is governed by. Nile gave them all their resources such as , food, water, fertile soil, trade and protection.

I have seen those bog ones, made of silver used around the waist and shoulders.

It was in a museum.

There were actually more than three levels of society in ancient Rome. However the moneyed ones were the patricians, the plebeians and the equites. The proletariat, freedmen, slaves and foreigners made up other classes in Roman society.

Rome first had a monarchy then had a republic. It was much like what the United States has today. Then Julius Ceasar gained control and had the senate vote him in as a ruler with absolute power. This then switched Rome from a republic to an empire.

The Circus Maximus in the Murcia valley between the Palatine Hill and the Aventine Hill and close to the river Tiber in the city of Rome.

The traditional Roman toga diminished in size as years progressed the earliest were around 6m! If you are making a toga the lenght of cloth required will depend on the size of the individual you want to fit, this link provides some estimates based on size. http://rabbitoriginals.com/toga/

The purpose of building the roads in Rome was so that Roman soldiers can go to the places where they needed to quicker and easier rather than going over the hills that surrounded the central part of its nation devastatingly. The roads as well helped traders and travelers.

During the republic the voting process was different from present day voting methods as voters were divided by tribes into two assemblies, the assembly of tribes, (comitia tributa) and the assembly of wards (comitia centuriata). They did not have a one-man-one-vote system as we have. Each ward and each tribe had one vote.

Yes. Julius Caesar's daughter was Julia Caesaris, meaning "Julia, the daughter of Caesar." She was born in 83 or 82 BCE and died in premature childbirth in 54 BCE, while Julius Caesar was campaigning in Brittain.

yes, but it was a very different product to what we know today, it would have been a very oxidized style.

The Roman roads fell into disuse centuries ago. The influence they have had is in the fact that many of them followed important trade routed across Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. Many modern roads follow paths which are similar to that of Roman roads.

Firstly, there was no such language as Roman. The Romans were Latins and spoke Latin. Secondly, the helmet had the same meaning in antiquity as it has now. The Latin for helmet was cassis or galea,
