How Romans Took Their Food.


The Romans reclined at their ban
quets on couches, all supporting them
selves on one elbow and eating with
their fingers from dishes placed In the
center Of the table. Each was sup
piled with a napkin. and knives were
used. though it does not appear that
every one was supplied with one.
Nothing. it would seem, could be more
fatiguing than to partake Of a repast
in such an awkward posture or less
conductive to neatness, 1t being almost
impossible to keep the hands clean
even with water supplied by the slaves
or to prevent the food and wine from
falling on the clothing and the draper
les of the couch. This manner OF eat
ing disappeared during the dark ages
so far as the couch was concerned,
but the popularity Of taking food with
the fingers from a common dish con-
tinued afterward for more than 1000
