2.Многим британским памятникам более тысячи лет, они были возведены еще в те времена, когда Британия была частью Римской Империи (The Rome empire). Древние городские стены, старые дороги, защитные ограждения. Но только в виллах можно почувствовать себя наиболее близко к повседневной жизни Римской Британии. Виллы были домами. На кухнях выпекался хлеб. В коридорах были слышны семейные разговоры. Виллы были хорошо построены и красиво украшены. Первые виллы были построены в 80-90 году нашей эры (AD). Это были небольшие фермы. Позже дома расширились, были добавлены кухни и ванные комнаты. Известно, что многие виллы были разрушены огнем. Их руины остаются спрятанными столетиями и нередко по чистой случайности они обнаруживаются. Так, например, Хэмпшире (Hampshire) фермером было найдено большое количество устричных раковин (oyster shell), и раковины, которые остались от празднования, происходившего сотни лет назад, привели к обнаружению виллы в Рокбурне (Rockburn).
a)
There are many British monuments that were built more than one thousand years ago when Britain was a part of The Roman Empire.
Ancient city walls, roads and protective barriers are among them.
However, it is a Roman villa which can fully make you have an impression about an everyday life of The Roman Britain.
Villas used to be well-built and elegantly decorated country houses of rich people.
At that time, bread was baked up at the kitchens and family conversations were heard in the passageways.
First villas were built in between eighty and ninety years AD. They were small farms.
Later, houses were getting bigger as kitchens and bathrooms were adjoined them.
It's well-known that many villas were destroyed by fire.
Their ruins remain hidden for ages but they can quite often be discovered accidentally.
For example, a lot of oyster shells were found by a Hampshire farmer.
These shells remained after a celebration that had taken place many ages ago.
The findings led to the disclosure of the Rockburn villa.
