Communal Rubbish Collection

No Roman, rich or poor, should suffer the repulsive view of filthy streets and alleyways.

The ancient Greeks established the first communal dump in Athens around 400 BC. A special law prohibited throwing rubbish into the streets and decreed that waste was to be carried at least a mile away from the city. A few centuries later, the Romans introduced the first communal rubbish collection service – two men with a wagon would walk the streets and take care of the citizens' household waste. Considering the terrible plagues that devastated the Empire, such as the outbreaks during the 3rd century AD, efforts to sanitise the ancient world were appropriate.
