ROMAN ENTERTAINMENTS In what ways did Rome’s culture, entertainment, and art reflect Roman philosophical and religious views? AGENDA Reading : Roman Entertainment Videos : Gladiators, Chariot Racing, and Baths Essential Question : Roman Entertainment & Philosophy

ROMAN ENTERTAINMENTS Romans of all classes enjoyed sports and other forms of entertainment and relaxation. Rich Romans who wanted to be elected to political office would often spend large amounts of money to provide entertainment for ordinary people. Providing entertainment was, in fact, so important that there were special government offices for organizing it. The most popular form of entertainment was watching gladiator fights. Roman cities and towns all over the empire had special arenas where people could go to watch people fight, sometimes to the death. Rome had the largest arena of them all called the Colosseum. Romans also enjoyed watching chariot races in the Circus Maximus. A chariot is a light cart pulled by a team of horses which are controlled by the charioteer. People watching in the stands would bet money on which team would win the race. Chariot races were very dangerous and drivers were often killed when their chariots crashed. Because very few people had baths in their houses most people had to go to public baths to get clean. However people didn't just go to the baths to wash themselves, they also went to exercise and to meet their friends. Emperors of Rome often built new baths to improve their popularity and show their power. What would be the modern day equivalents of these Roman entertainments? Gladiators Chariot Racing Public Baths How did Roman entertainments match their philosophical beliefs?
