PLEBS image by Lauren Rhude

Drawing of the hierarchy of society under the Roman Empire. The base of the pyramid is enslaved people, then liberti, plebeians, equestrians, senators, and the emperor at the top. To the left of the pyramid is the notation "Plebs: the common people, majority of Roman citizens, working class." To the right of the pyramid the levels from emperor through liberti are bracketed with the notation "citizens." The liberti are asterisked with the notation "not considered equal to other citizens."
