The octagonal room in Nero's Golden House, known as the Domus Aurea, had a domed ceiling covered in glass panels during the Roman Empire. Historical evidence confirms this advanced architectural feature, allowing natural light to illuminate the interior space and highlighting the Romans' ingenuity. This early example not only laid the foundation for modern-day architectural skylights but also serves as a testament to the enduring influence of ancient design principles on contemporary architectural practices.
