A brief warning to you WHEN CRIMES WERE COMMITED IN ANCIENT ROME, THERE WERE BRUTAL PUNISHMENTS AND FATAL CONSEQUENCES. AS YOU FOLLOW US INTO THE WORLD OF CRIME AND PUNISHMENT, BE SURE TO KEEP YOUR EYES PERCHED AND DO NOT VOMIT AT THE SHEER HORRIBLE—NESS OF THE GHASTLY PUNSHMENTS. ALSO, STAY ENTERTAINED WITH OUR TWO LITTLE ROMANS WHO BRAVELY VOLUNTEERED TO JOIN US IN THIS POWERPOINT. NOW, AS THEY ALL SAY, TIME IS TICKING SO LET’S BEGIN … ENJOY! - A brief intersection from the makers- BOORING! HOW DARE YOU CRITISIZE THE AUTHORS!!!

Har! Punishments then in Ancient Rome were much harsher than it is now. Types of punishments include : Beheading, strangling Throwing a prisoner from the Tarpeian rock, into a river and into a prison called Robur, Crucifixion Burying a person alive Banishment Stop there! You crook! CRIME AND PUNISHMENT

SLAVES had no rights at all Used as ‘tools’ for the citizens of Rome. Common punishment = lashing. When slave were being beaten, a weight was tied to their feet. Another source of punishment used was forcing the slave to carry a piece of wood around wherever they went. This was called Furca. YOU CAN’T CATCH ME!!! GRRR…

FORGERY Getting CLOSER ‘puff’ ‘pant’ ‘groan’ A death sentence was not given for this offence (except slaves) but free people guilty of this crime were subjected to banishment. This deprived them of their property and privileges. The Tarpeian Rock People who committed patricide were blindfolded and thrown into a river from the Tarpeian rock. The were also put in prison. Crucifixion The victim was tied or nailed, above the wrist and feet, to a cross or pole. When nailed, there was a massive strain put on the wrists, arms and shoulders often resulting in a dislocation of the shoulder and elbow joints. The rib cage was constrained in a fixed position, which made it extremely difficult to exhale, and impossible to take a full breath. The Romans also whipped their victims using a whip for scourging called a flagrum, which consisted of small pieces of bone and metal attached to a number of leather strands.

CRIM E CRIME IN ANCIENT ROME INCLUDED FORGERY, TREASON, PATRICIDE AND STEALING. VANDALS AND THIEFS WERE COMMON THEN. DID YOU KNOW!? Treason is betraying your country. Patricide is killing your own father. These were one of the worst offences you could commit. A firework in the shape of a question mark? Yargh! Patrols were introduced in 6 A.D. by Augustus soldier to stop riots vigils to patrol the night and put out fires praetorian guard to protect the emperor.

The ten tables twelve DID U KNOW!? It started off with 10 ten tables but was later changed to the twelve tables when Appius Claudius added two more. I didn’t know that 1.Civil Procedure 2.Civil Procedure 3.Debt 4.Rights of fathers (paterfamilias) over the family 5.Legal guardianship and inheritance laws 6.Acquisition and possession 7.Land rights 8.Torts and delicts (Laws of injury) 9.Public law 10.Sacred law 11.Supplement I 12.Supplement II
