| The story of civilization begins centuries ago and ancient Rome was one of its most important birthplaces. Today's world owes a great deal to the cultures of ancient Europe, including many principles of democratic government, law, poetry, drama, art and architecture. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Towering aqueducts and long, straight Roman roads still survive from those times hundreds of years ago, and many modern languages are still peppered with words that come from Latin, the language of ancient Rome. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Find out for yourself how the Romans forged the greatest empire the world has ever known and discover the systems and techniques that Roman builders used to create great cities. Learn about Roman lifestyle and customs: the way they dressed, the entertainments they enjoyed and the foods they ate. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| A variety of easy-to-make projects are included: build a Roman home, create a purple-trimmed toga and fashion a golden headdress that will leave you looking fit to rule an empire! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Packed with over 300 colour photographs and 50 illustrations, including cross sections and historical maps, this book is ideal for fun and learning both at home and at school.
