Roma Amor - Passion in Ancient Rome

"Roma amor: as the ancient Romans loved" is a journey into a vanished world, much talked about but little known. Many curiosities await: how did people kiss 2,000 years ago in the alleys of ancient Rome? How did people make love 2,000 years ago in these homes? Did they bring roses to their girlfriends? What tricks did a woman use to seduce a man? And to cheat on her husband? How did people get married? Did they wear wedding rings? Is it true that divorce was easy? And what were the taboos under the covers? To reconstruct a complete and thorough picture, we drew on discoveries at archaeological sites, laboratory data, ancient texts and modern studies, and hundreds of museum artifacts, frescoes, and graffiti statues from Pompeii and Herculaneum. And the answers we find are often surprising. We will discover, for example, that—contrary to what we see in many films—morality was much more rigid than today, at least when it came to conduct on the streets.
