Clothing in ancient Rome
Clothing in ancient Rome: the wool toga of the citizen (togatus), the matron's stola and palla, tunics with status stripes, and cloaks like the paenula and birrus; wool and linen textiles, Diocletian's 301 CE price edict, and the late-antique shift from toga to cloak.
Pileus (hat)
The pileus (Greek pilos) was an ancient brimless felt cap worn by Greek workers and Roman priests, given to freed slaves as a liberty symbol, and later conflated with the Phrygian cap of the French Revolution.
Toga
The toga was the semicircular woolen outer garment of male Roman citizens, draped without fastenings over a tunic. Also togati; marked citizenship, rank (praetexta, picta), and declined to ceremonial dress.
