The Romans had a complicated religious system which was based on hundreds of gods and so on. However, the role of religion was quite different because people usually had temples in their own homes, thus the effect of sermons bringing people together was not present in roman times. The role of youths in both societies were quite similar, and children held a high place in the society. Due to the shared ideology that children were the future of the country and that every amount had to be invested into them. This was expressed by both civilization but to different degrees.
Entertainment is an integral part of each society.
To the Romans the Public Baths were an essential part of their social lives. Here in the absence of women men could discuss matters without fear that of their wives over hearing. In many ways this 'male bonding' continued in Australian times, where instead of Public Baths men went down to the Pub, 'for a drink with their mate'. Women were rarely seen in public in the roman society, as their place was the home. During the 1960's women were socializing with their partners and friends at restaurants and cafes.
