-The term ‘compare’- similarities or differences? What platform to use… Visual aids and explanations Maps… Real maps of ancient Rome… Maps of Barrhaven Problems:
First I compared importance • In relation to Rome, Ostia was a very important harbour and trading port for Rome. This was a quick and easy place to bring trade goods to, and bring in mainland to Rome. • Veii was an old Etruscan city which was large beautiful and important, it was much of a status city and considered as a possibility to be the new Rome when Rome was taken in a battle. It contributed largely to the production of terracotta statues. Barrhaven has no importance to Ottawa, it is merely a suburb with housing for people to live. There is some farming but not enough to ‘feed the masses’, even before the more major development the farming wasn’t too substantial.
I also looked at the distance between the city and subburbs • Ostia is approximatly 30 km away from Rome • Veii is approximately 16 km away from Rome • Barrhaven is approximately 26 km away from Ottawa
