Plumbing was more of a luxury/comfort for people that also made their life easier. Baths were common and were usually taken while standing up in public baths. Bathing was also used for ceremonial purposes in religious services and rituals. Toilets were only limited to those who could afford them, so the upper class. Lower classes used urns or sump pots. Upper class toilets were stacked bricks with a hole that would drain out. Plumbing on the 2nd floor though was led by pipes to the streets.  Limestone was used to prevent leakage. Hope this helps. :)

How did passage of the dawes act affect native american indians?
Nitella [24]
<span>Native Americans were forced to become Americanaized because the passage was meant to undermine tribal unity, which in turn forced the indians to assimilate into the american culture and society. It also took the reservation land that the natives inhabited and cut the land into portions that were then assigned to the Indians, with the right to use the land however they decided to. As a result, indegenous Native families were seperated, war erupted in rebellion to the changes by the Native Americas, and alot of the traditions and cultural rituals became obsolete as they got lost over time.</span>
