Where the romans woreshiped • The Romans worshipped their gods in a temple. They made sacrifices of animals and precious items to their gods. • They believed that when an Emperor died he became a god and so a sacrifice was also made to the Emperor. • The Romans also worshipped Gods in their own homes. Every day or at least 5-6 days a week.
Roman houses • There was a significant difference between the south-eastern half of Britannia (the Roman name for Britain) and the north-western region. In the south-east Roman style country homes known as villas were established. In the north and west of Britain, few villas have been found. Not all Romans lived in villas. The majority of people living in the country lived in houses in the style of the Celtic houses. These houses were usually round and made of timber and thatched. • Did you know:Only one percent of people in Roman Britain lived in villas.
Building materials • A lot of building material has survived from the Roman period, but mainly for buildings constructed of stone and tile. There is little evidence of wattle and daub buildings, which are thought to have been used throughout the Roman period. • Roman houses, especially ones belonging to rich people, were so well built that the remains of villas and even towns have been found.
