“Third time’s the charm... Right?”

“How does the city of Rome work?” Seth Bernard asked today at the Archaeological Institute of America presentation at Brock University. For a majority of his presentation he focused on how building techniques changed and developed over time in ancient Rome and studied their usage of tufo giallo. Furthermore, Bernard explained architecture drove economic booms and the techniques were affected by population growth. 

With every building, Bernard walked his audience through the progression (although it was a rather slow evolution) of Roman architecture with different monuments and how Romans seemed to be trying to attain a good in-between. He chose 4 monuments and compared them. For example, Bernard stated “tufo giallo” was mentioned by Vetruvius as best under covered places (locis tectis), however Romans did not realize this (or seemed to care very little). Through his architectural case studies, he clearly showed how the first buildings were far more daring in structure compared to last buildings which were more carefully conducted for long lasting foundations.

Seth Bernards’ discussion was far more entertaining than any short blog post can do justice. He was entertaining and imaginative, even going so far as to include Livy’s account of a cow climbing up a three-story building only to fall off the roof and leaving his audience with an entertaining thought of how wide doorways must have been, the possibility of multiple levels and how could a cow even possibly get up there!

Not the greatest quality video, but this is one of my favorite songs from an amazing local duo, Daisy May Erlewine and Seth Bernard.

“Shine on, shine on, there is work to be done in the dark before dawn.”
