LLP Extra Learning Space

Want to know how the richest of the Romans lived? What about those who couldn’t afford their own private accommodation? In this mini course, you’ll learn about insulae (Roman apartment blocks) as well as the domus (townhouse).

Covering all of the prescribed sources for this topic of the Classical Civilisation GCSE and led by LLP Classics teacher, Kate, this provides a fascinating insight into the personal and business lives of real Romans. 

With amazingly preserved houses and apartments in Pompeii, Herculaneum and Ostia, we can discover that some aspects of Roman life were not too different from ours!
