The Romans came from overseas
And thanks to archaeology…
We know a lot about them.

5. They were very fond of feasts
And always wanted more to chew up
With wine and vegetables and beasts
They stuffed and stuffed and
then they threw up!
Bleh!

6. Rich Romans liked to dress with flair
In togas, cloaks and jewellery
They would sometimes bleach their
hair
With ash and vinegar and wee!
Eeeew!

9. They worshipped many different deities
For every aspect of their life
Mighty Jupiter was king of these
And Juno was his wife.
The Romans’ building work was great
Their sewage system takes some
Beating,
The roads they laid were super straight
And they invented central heating.

12. They excelled themselves at war,
And conquered many other nations.
Three hundred thousand troops or
more
Took very good organisation!
The Romans liked to have a laugh
(hahaha!)
Gladiator fights and chariot races,
A visit to the public baths
Would put a smile upon their faces!
