Villa of the Firmi Corippi

[Barry Goldwater]

The Firmi Corippi dwell in a spartan villa on the very edge of Roman civilization, a shelter from the Saharan sandstorms of hewn rock and brick with little in the way of decoration - its sheer size is the main feature differentiating it from the stone houses of other Romano-Berbers. Water, whether brought over from a nearby oasis or coming down atop the house in the form of rainfall, is stored in great cisterns to ensure that the homeowners don't die of dehydration even should they run out of wine.
