Types of punishments include : • Beheading, • strangling •Throwing a prisoner from the Tarpeian rock, into a river and into a prison called Robur , •Crucifixion •Burying a person alive•Banishment

Stop there! You crook!

CRIME AND PUNISHMENT

SLAVES had no rights at allUsed as ‘tools’ for the citizens of Rome. Common punishment = lashing. When slave were being beaten, a weight was tied to their feet. Another source of punishment used was forcing the slave to carry a piece of wood around wherever they went. This was called Furca.

YOU CAN’T CATCH ME!!!GRRR…

FORGERY

Getting CLOSER ‘puff’ ‘pant’ ‘groan’

A death sentence was not given for this offence (except slaves) but free people guilty of this crime were subjected to banishment. This deprived them of their property and privileges.

The Tarpeian RockPeople who committed patricide were blindfolded and thrown into a river from the Tarpeian rock. The were also put in prison.

Crucifixion

The victim was tied or nailed, above the wrist and feet, to a cross or pole. When nailed, there was a massive strain put on the wrists, arms and shoulders often resulting in a dislocation of the shoulder and elbow joints. The rib cage was constrained in a fixed position, which made it extremely difficult to exhale, and impossible to take a full breath. The Romans also whipped their victims using a whip for scourging called a flagrum, which consisted of small pieces of bone and metal attached to a number of leather strands.

CRIME

CRIME IN ANCIENT ROME INCLUDED FORGERY, TREASON, PATRICIDE AND STEALING. VANDALS AND THIEFS WERE COMMON THEN.

DID YOU KNOW!?

Treason is betraying your country. Patricide is killing your own father.These were one of the worst offences you could commit.
