Looks like Nero was a sick man. Interesting article. I too like learning of some of Ancient Rome’s customs and mysteries. Good job on this one; the writing style fits the material.

Just one thing: “In 64AD the well documented Great Fire of Rome took place when around two-thirds of the city were [[should be was]] destroyed.” If you were talking about thirds the verb form would be were, but you are talking about a city, so the verb form is was.

Thanks for sharing, and have a good day.

Being British, our family must have some roman ancestors, as looking at pictures, they do sport the Roman nose. I now live in the US, in Montana but like to read historic novels and your article was well written.

It will be interesting to discover how the dining room turned. I favour the water theory but that period in history is full of surprises.

An absorbing description of Nero’s lifestyle. The goings on sound almost as bad as Eastenders! (TV soap in UK).

I always found the Romans quite exciting but I think Nero pushed the boundaries just a tad to far! my goodness, they will uncover a gimp mask next! Fantastic article told me all I needed and wanted to know!
