The Roman Forum was originally used for athletic games and trading purposes of all kinds however, the forum became a political and banking center where bankers and brokers had their offices. The Forum Civilium judicial and Forum Venalium mercantile came into existence under the empire because of the growth of the city and the increase in provincial business.
