How do you look for words that are related to a certain culture? For example, when I want to look for all items that existed during Ancient Rome, how do I do this as efficiently as possible. Is there any book you would recommend, what about items during the Meiji Era? Clothes such as chiton and palla are hardly ever referenced in thesauruses, and when you use encyclopedia they may only cover items during Antiquity and in certain regions. Is there a good online resource where you can find all items and not just related ones associated with a certain region and time?

As far as I can tell, there isn't any book or website with a complete list of what you're looking for. You might have to make your own list using the information provided by various places. Here are a few links you might find useful: www.romanaqueducts.info/technicalintro/surveyingtools.htm This is about the tools used in Ancient Rome. www.historyhit.com/what-did-the-romans-eat-food-and-drink-in-ancient-times/ This is about their food. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_technology This is a Wikipedia page on Roman technology. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_of_ancient_Rome The culture of Ancient Rome. relatedwords.org/relatedto/ancient%20rome This link might be especially useful. It lists terms and phrases related to or used in Ancient Rome.
I would also suggest reading some books written about Ancient Rome. Reading those will definitely give you the information you need, because of the language and terms used.
