Rough Roman Memes

416 readers

A place to meme about the glorious ROMAN EMPIRE (and Roman Republic, and Roman Kingdom)! Byzantines tolerated! The HRE is not.

RULES:

  1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.

  2. Memes must be Rome-related, not just the title. It can be about Rome, or using Roman aesthetics, or both, but the meme itself needs to have Roman themes.

  3. Follow Lemmy.world rules.

Not sure where to start on Roman history?

I suppose I jumped the gun, or misread. I responded with 'apartments' not noticing that you had said 'rooms'. Most Roman apartments had windows, cubicula often did, but only irregularly; more of a coin flip, with better-quality apartments more likely to have windows in the cubicula. I can send a book your way if you're interested in the details; otherwise, just accept this mea culpa.

No wonder they were so dangerous. Egress, c'mon guys, you figured out the distance to the moon and you can't track that?
