in the richest homes of northern Europe you would call it the winter garden, or the inner courtyard... though in warm Italy these houses would be open plan, further north, say into Gaul or Britannia the atrium would be connected to the other rooms via thick wooden doors and intricate glass windows. just think of it as an enclosed garden rather than a room...

Catch_Me_If_You_Can It's a reference to a Monty Python movie, _Life of Brian_, set in Jerusalem circa 33 CE. I won't spoil it - search "Romanes eunt domus" on KZread. Or, better yet, by the movie. It's well worth it.

This is helpful. I've been looking into the domus and other Roman construction, as I plan on building my own home and I want it to be heavily influenced by ancient Roman (and Greek) architecture, with some modern accoutrements, of course.

Thank you for this, it's refreshing to have an informative video without having to sit through hours of documentary, I also appreciate the clear pronunciation you provide. ♥

House/home is "dom" in Polish. Didn't know it was derived from Latin. Also Latin word for library is still used here (Bibliotheca --> Biblioteka). Cool.

It's probably an IndoEuropean root because it's dom in Russian as well. You can see a cognate in German with Haus (Domus) Languages are fun that way. Also, the word for poop seems to go across all the indoeuropean languages. Bibliotheka is Greek on the other hand.

Actually polish 'dom' is from slavic origin and sounds same in other slavic languages (russian дом). You may read about it here pl.wikisource.org/wiki/S%C5%82ownik_etymologiczny_j%C4%99zyka_polskiego/Dom

I can't actually read it, I'm Russian. But remember, before slavic and germanic and romance languages there was Proto Indo European whic is the ancestor language of almost all European and Indian languages. "domus "house" (from PIE root *dem- "house, household") + colere "to dwell" The PIE dem most likely morphed differently in diffferent areas. Here is the PIE that it's traced back to: en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Reconstruction:Proto-Indo-European/d%E1%B9%93m

Pretty much every advanced culture had a place like that, so I'd be surprised if they didn't. Also, places where people gather to eat and/or get drunk are pretty much always very social and roman citizens certainly loved socializing. I mean, if they managed to make bathing social, it'd be weird if they didn't make eating social.

An amazing video! Very inspiring, for home planning and even for fantasy writing :) . Maybe some day you could find a reconstructed domus in which you could film, and do a mini documentary on location! I love these sorts of videos and documentaries that invoke wonder and curiosity, unlike some documentaries that try to dramaticise, comercialise, epicise, everything to make it like the film '300' . Your approach to Roman history reminds me a bit of Mary Beard and her series 'meet the Romans' she also ignited this sort of love for ancient Rome in me. People who are genuinely passionate about the subject make the most engaging videos.

Thanks!

Those aren't necessarily Latin words, but indo-european words. Latin, Greek, German, English etc. all developed from the proto-indo-european language, along with a massive amount f other languages spoken in Europe, the middle east and India. There are many Indian languages that have shared words with Lithuanian for example, because the same words from the original language were preserved in both places.

As someone who has briefly studied roman history but tended to focus on a little later (post 400 AD) I have always loved your videos and continue to learn tons from them, but I'd love if you could include a sources/further reading section in your descriptions so those with interest could continue our own research.

What I love about being Hispanic American or Latino, is the cultural background of our language, which together with the Portuguese, French, Italians and Romanian, unites us with our glorious Roman past, which makes it very enjoyable to listen and easily understand many of the Latin words that you say when talking about the Roman Domus. On the other hand, as an architect, it is easy to recognize the influence that this type of construction has on the architecture of all Mediterranean countries; Also, thanks to your descriptions, I am glad to know the usefulness of each of the rooms and spaces that made up these Roman houses, which must have been a sight to behold.

love you videos about ancient Rome ❤

good video

Look great nice place

I love your videos. Also, as a Romanian, I have an easier time understanding the latin words, since they are so similar to my language.

A tiny correction: The term insula was originally just used for a city block, an area surrounded by streets. It also came to signify huge apartment buildings because they would take up whole city blocks but there were many other insulae where that was not the case. Some insulae even consisted of just one very big domus, though it might have some tabernae fronting the street.

I like these "Roman life" videos even more than your weapons & armor videos! Keep spreading your wings, bro!
