context_page_description: Villa rustica was the term used by the ancient Romans to denote a villa set in the open countryside, often as the hub of a large agricultural estate. The adjective rusticum was used to distinguish it from an urban or resort villa, or villa otium built for purely leisure and luxury. The villa rustica would thus serve both as a residence of the landowner and his family and also as a farm management centre. It would often comprise separate buildings to accommodate farm labourers and sheds and barns for animals and crops.
  In modern British archaeology, a villa rustica is commonly referred to simply as a "Roman villa" as most were of the rustica type.
  The villa rustica's design differed depending on the architect, but usually it consisted of three parts; the urbana, agricultural center and the rusticana.
