The '' stibadium '' (plural: ''stibadia'') is a later form of the Roman ''lectus triclinaris'', the reclining seat used by diners in the triclinium. Originally, the ''lecti'' were arranged in a group of three in a semi-circle. The ''stibadium'' was a single semi-circular couch, fitting up to a dozen people, which replaced the triple group of ''lecti'' in the dining-room, frequently in alcoves around the centre of the room. The ''stibadium'' was originally an outdoor seat but was introduced indoors in the 2nd-3rd centuries B.C. because the shape was more convenient for entertaining and as ''triclinia'' became larger and more elaborate. Films about ancient Roman ''convivia'' often feature a ''stibadium'' rather than a ''lectus''. ==See also== * klinai * Accubita * Ancient Roman cuisine 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「stibadium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
