Hispania
Another Scipio, Publius Cornelius Scipio, was sent to replace his father and uncle. In 209 he advanced and succeeded in capturing the city of Cathargo Nova, Carthage’s main supply-base in Spain. Following his victory at Cathargo Nova, Scipio fought for three more years before he finally forced the remainder of Carthaginians from Spain. In 206 Scipio returned to Rome and brought the war to Carthage in Africa. There he defeated Hannibal in 202 BC at the Battle of Zama, and earned the name Scipio Africanus. Rome’s control of Spain however was not uncontested. After the war Rome divided Spain into two provinces, known as Hispania Citerior (Near Spain) and Hispania Ulterior (Far Spain). Both of these provinces were rich in silver and other precious metals, and their governors did not hesitate to extort extra wealth from the Spanish inhabitants. During the second Punic war the native tribes of Spain switched between supporting the Carthaginians and the Romans. Eventually they turned fully against the Romans in a series of revolts.

Daily Life in Rome
Roman History
The Roman Empire is no more. A fitting place to start, for anyone at all interested in Roman history, is the end of the Roman Republic. From the praetorian guard auctioning off the position of emperor to the highest bidder to Caracalla attaining sole power in Rome and obliterating his brother Geta's name from mention, the final days of the Empire were eventful. The Severan emperors were those in control at the fitful end. Whether a blessing or a curse, history will always look apon the Arch of Severus and remember the fall of Rome. For a rather more in depth look, there is selections from Edward Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire . Originally a six-volume monstrosity (although good reading, all of it) this is an indexed list of selections from the work and is an excellent source of information as a starting point for readings from Gibbon's work. For a very brief history of Rome, there are many sources. From the founding of Rome in 510 BCE to the eventual fall in the era of the Severan Emperors, there is a lot of ground. See our page on Roman politics for more on the Severan Emperors and others.

    Plebeians
    By the time of Augustus and the Empire, the term Plebeian referred to all free Roman citizens who were not members of the Patrician or Equestrian classes.
    Plebeians were low on the social scale.
    It is more difficult to imagine the daily life of the lower class, because they were not able to record and preserve their experiences as could their more privileged countrymen. The importance of archaeological finds like the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum is that they preserve the living spaces, shops, tools, and graffiti of the common people that would otherwise be lost to history.
    Ronald Mellor
    : The poor of the ancient world don't speak to us. They don't leave their voices. The writings that come to us from antiquity are the writings of an elite. The art that comes is the art of an elite... But the poor in any city are going to have a very hard time making due. They're going to be working on a per day basis. And if there is rain and there is no work in construction they are going to be close to starvation.

    Pliny the Younger
    It was a life-changing blow, but it was hardly unusual. Apart from the hazards of war, many Romans died young from infectious disease, famine, and during childbirth. Funerals and mourning were painful staples of daily life. Pliny wrote of witnessing one such funeral:
    I've never seen a girl more cheerful and friendly; more worthy of long life. Barely fourteen, she blended virginal modesty with the wisdom and dignity of a mature woman. And her early death was all the more tragic since she was soon to marry a fine young man. The day had been chosen and the invitations sent. Such joy has turned to such sorrow! A Roman stylus used for writing. By the end of the century, he had risen to the rank of Consul, and was a member of Trajan's imperial board of advisors. But fame, he concluded, was the only tonic that would satisfy him. By chronicling his times, Pliny hoped, he might not only shape the empire's legacy, but also secure the fame he sought.
    Death seems bitter and premature for those composing timeless works. My own mortality, my own writings come to mind. No doubt the same thoughts frighten you. While life is with us, we must struggle to make our mark so that death finds little it can wipe away.

    ANCIENT-THEME.com The Roman Empire About the time of Trajan Art and Architecture Right: Trajan's Column
    (Erik Wilson) The Roman Empire dominated the lands about the Mediterranean Sea, and reached its greatest extent under the emperor Trajan (98-113 CE) and his successor Hadrian. With many cultures brought together under one rule, there was trade and travel thoughout all parts of the Empire. Trajan himself was also the first non-Italian to become Emperor. Above: Aqueduct (Phil Kostka) The Romans were both conquerors and builders. They built aqueducts all over Italy to bring water to the city of Rome, and built roads to carry soldiers, letters, and trade. More avowedly practical than the Greeks, the Romans nevertheless were very superstitious. The wealthy hired the best Greek teachers for their children, and brought the art and artists of conquered lands back to Rome. Trajan appointed a learned man, Quintilian, to make sure that the upper class Roman children studied the art of rhetoric, and the ideas that would make them proper Romans. About this time, two influential Romans declared their people's distinctive style of expression:

    Homepage Timeline Maps A-Z index ... Learning Roman and Byzantine Egypt: background Information In 30 BC Egypt became a Roman province with a special status. Egypt was directly under the authority of the emperor and was ruled by a prefect. Senators or eques illustris (knights) could only enter the country with a special permission of the emperor. The country was divided into three districts (Thebais, Middle Egypt and the Delta). Head of these districts was the 'epistrategos' who had administrative, but no military power. Each of the districts was divided into several nomes , which were ruled by a strategos. The Egyptian were 'subjects' (dediticii), who had to pay a poll tax. Only people of the Greek cities ( Naukratis , Alexandria, Ptolemaios, Antinooupolis) and the descendants of the Greek settlers in the Fayum were exempt. In AD 212 (Constitutio Antoniana) all people of the Roman Empire became Roman citizens. Under Diocletian, who reorganised the whole Roman Empire, the previously single province of Egypt was divided into three provinces: Aegyptus Jovia (with Alexandria), Aegyptus Herculia and Thebais. In AD 395 the Roman empire was divided into two halves. Egypt became part of the East Roman Empire (Byzantine Empire), which was now a Christian empire. AD 539 the Egyptian provinces were directly under the 'praefectus praetorio per Orientem'. He had civil, but also military power. In AD 619 Egypt was conquered by the (Sassanidian) Iranians, and their occupation of the land lasted till AD 629. In AD 639 Amr ibn el-As invaded Egypt. In AD 641 he conquered the fortification of Babylon (today Old Cairo) and in AD 642 Alexandria. A Byzantine fleet reconquered the city in AD 645, but it was lost again in AD 646.
