France Villa
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- The first villas emerged towards the end of the Roman Republic. At first they were simply Roman country homes. There were too types. The villa rustica was actually a general term for a farm house that was typically occupied by servants who were left in charge of the estate The owners of the villa—generally the very wealthy or those from prominent families—stayed in the villa urbana or the home proper. Historians believe Pliny the Younger had four, one them being the one near Laurentium which he described often. Cicero had as many as seven villas, the oldest (which he inherited) located at Arpinum.
