Answer to Question 1

Answer: Under Roman law, imprisonment was illegal. Under English law, imprisonment became a means of
holding an accused person for trial, but not for punishment. Banishment from the country was also
widely used. Today, imprisonment has become more the norm, replacing revenge, maiming, and
castration. The isolation theory found favor in keeping the convict away from society (and the victim).

Answer to Question 2

Answer: indeterminate

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
