13. LIFE IN BRITAIN
1. Life in Roman Britain
When the Romans came to Britain they brought their way of
life with them. Over time, the people of Britain and the
Romans mixed. The Britons began to live the Roman
lifestyle and the Romans took on local customs.
The Romans built new towns. These were often protected
by walls and there was everything a citizen of Roman Britain
would need inside - houses, shops, meeting spaces,
workshops, temples and bathhouses.
They also built grand country houses called 'villas'. These
had many rooms, some with beautifully painted walls,
mosaic floors and even central heating.
14. HOUSES
2. What were houses like?
Most of Roman Britain was a wild place, with forests and
mountains where few people lived.
People mainly lived in small villages of wooden houses with
thatched roofs, much as they had before the Romans arrived.
However, some wealthy Romans lived in villas and palaces. Villas
were large farms with a big house for the owners. They had
lots of servants and farm workers to help run the villa.
Most of the Roman villas found by archaeologists are in the
south of England.
15. FAMILY
3. What was a roman family like?
Men were in charge of the family in Roman Britain. Mothers
were thought to be less important than fathers.
Life for women in Roman times was often hard. Women
were expected to run the home, cook meals and raise
children. Wealthy women were lucky: they had slaves to do
the work for them.
Many girls were married at the age of 14. Marriages were
often arranged between families. A man could divorce his
wife if she did not give birth to a son. Many women died
young in their 30s, because childbirth could be dangerous.
16. BUILDING
• 4. What technology did they bring?
• The Romans were good at building roads and bridges, but not so keen on
machines. They had slaves to do the heavy work and nasty jobs.
• Although they didn’t invent the arch, the Romans were the first people to
build arches into big buildings and aqueducts. Romans used aqueducts to
supply towns with water from springs, rivers or lakes. Aqueducts were like
a bridge with a stone channel to carry water on top.
• The Romans liked to keep clean. Towns and forts had underground drains
to take away dirty water and sewage. The drain pipes were flushed with
water from the baths, so they didn't get too smelly. Fresh water and
sewers are important. Without them, people risk catching diseases.
• The Romans were most famous for their roads. To make sure soldiers and
supplies could move from town to town quickly, the Romans made their
roads as straight as possible.
