Following on from his earlier 2006 work on the suburban villas of
Campania, Geoff Adams here turns his attention to the villas of the
suburban environs of Rome itself. He uses both literary and
archaeological evidence, but his principal method of enquiry is via
a statistical survey of the architecture of the villas. Of
particular interest are the ratio's of public to private space, and
the percentages of space set aside for leisure and entertainment.
Other types of villas (rural, urban, coastal) are also assessed, in
order that the particular social functions of the suburban villa
may be discerned.
