Agora Description:
In Roman times, the agora was the center of public life. Not just an open space between buildings, the forum was the locus of senate and imperial proclamations, the place where the augurs were read and the auspices pronounced and a central area for ostentatious display of grief and gratitude.
Unlike the Agora, the forum gradually became non-commercial. Instituted in the early Republican era, by the time of Augustus no carts were allowed in the Roman Forum, necessitating the establishment of specialty marketplaces (like the Forum Boarium, or cattle market) separated from the forum for health reasons.
