Budapest, 2002 on a large scale, even in carefully designed Roman cities with a compelling forum, broad streets, holy gardens and fountains like Aquincum. The best analogue to the "Peristyle house" was perhaps the civitas Tungrorum (Tongeren) in Belgium (VANDERHOEVEN-ERVYNCK 2002, in press) this respect. Cattle carcasses were processed right next to the centre of the town, leather was tanned and marrow and glue were cooked in industrial dimensions. These procedures were pursued in separate wings of more ornamented residential buildings here as well. It is assumed that these were activities within the interest sphere of the elite of the town, which accrued a significant income from bone and hide processing. The large amount of refuse, pollution and smells caused by these activities were natural offshoots of citv life. A similar situation can be found at the settlements of Nieopolis ad Istrum, Colonia Ulpia Traiana (Xanten) or Augusta Raurica (Augst) as well, l'he same may have been true in the Civil Town of Aquincum although here we can also take into consideration from a sanitary point of view the prevailing northwest wind blowing from the Solymár valley, which would have swept out the unpleasant smells generated bv hide and bone processing. The topographic position of the workshop was not accidental: it was built along the main east-west road of the town (perhaps together with the connected booth where the products were sold), which led directly to the hypothesized location of the harbour. Thus, the heavy traffic and perhaps the hide and bone material from animal transports arriving here from the Barbaricum may have been among the
