Kitchens, Dining Rooms, and Latrines: Daily Routines in a Roman House
How did ancient Romans perform daily routines like cooking, dining, and using the toilet? In this presentation Dr. Mira Green explores the accounts from Roman literature about cooking, dining, and excreting, alongside the archaeological evidence from Pompeii in order to recreate some daily routines in Roman houses. She will also consider how the tools, locations, and movement of daily routines established and maintained domestic hierarchies in Roman homes. This talk is one of three offered as part of the Museum’s “Pompeii Day.” It is sponsored by The Spokane Society of the Archaeological Institute of America. Saturday, April 11, 2019, 11:30 am.
