CHAPTER 7, SECTION 3
Roman Daily Life
Patricians, Plebeians and Slaves
Things We Already Know
• A patrician was a member of the wealthy
upper-class.
• A plebeian was an ordinary citizen.
• Slaves made up about ⅓ of the population.
• Slaves came from all across land controlled
by Rome.
• Slaves did most of the building, such as the
Colosseum or Trajan’s Forum.
Things We Already Know
• Prior to 367 B.C.E. and The Law of the Twelve
Tables, plebeians could not be senators or
consuls.
• Patricians gave in to these demands because
plebeians refused to fight in Rome’s wars.
• Patricians were becoming increasingly rich,
taking over plebeian land and bringing in
more slaves—meaning more and more
plebeians were unemployed and homeless.
