Multimedia and Roman Social History (MaRSH)

Imaginary worlds


We have created a three-dimensional world for you to explore. As our knowledge of the past is incomplete, we have had to go beyond accepted facts and create what we believe to be credible interpretations. We do this for a reason: to work solely within archaeological certainty may present an unbalanced view of what life was like 1600 years ago. What persists tends to be permanent materials and is often the property of those who are wealthy. There is a truthfulness in attempting to provide a holistic view of the social life of the times, but in doing so we can claim no certainty for many of the details.
