As the 7th grade finishes their study of the Roman Empire we learned about how the ancient city might have smelled. It turns out that even with the public baths the city did not smell very good. To help with that the Romans made scent satchels that they carried around with them. We used chamomile, lavender, thyme, rosemary, sage, and mint to create our own scent bag. Some of the combinations created smelled very good!
