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.
