Did Ancient Romans use addresses?

Question

Did the ancient Romans have the notion of an "address" as a way to locate a building within the city? Did the streets have names? How would a roman have described where in the city his house was located?

Answer 1

i think cavemen did..

Hey Billy, you know where Pajo lives?

Yup, 2nd cave on the right on the 3rd mountain... the one with the dead granddad corpse outside it.

Answer 2

I seen something on the hsitory channel a few years ago about a "street sign" it had the intersection set up, pretty cool IMHO.

Answer 3

As a matter fact, yes they did.
