CATASTA
CATASTA[SERVUS]
Catasta
A raised platform upon which slaves were exposed for sale, so that the intending purchasers might more readily examine their points (Tibull. ii. 3, 60; Pers. vi. 77). The platform was sometimes made to revolve, as appears from Statius (Stat. Silv. ii. 1, 72). When the platform was used in private sales it was called catasta arcana (Mart. ix. 60. 5). See servus.
