Welcome to ancient Rome in 137 AD and spend a day with the Romans. The empire is approaching power, with dazzling wealth and prosperity, and the city is a symbol of culture and learning.
But ordinary Romans saw none of this, and they cared little for expanding territories, towering buildings, or lofty ideals.

Night watchmen, bakers, senators, slaves, priestesses, astrologers, Vesta virgins, schoolchildren, spice traders, imperial messengers, bathhouse attendants, gladiators... Follow all kinds of Romans on a journey through ancient Rome!
