Dec 1, 2017 at 2:48 comment added robev @MonicaCellio I wonder then why only Rabban Gamliel's attic is specified, or even specified at all?
Dec 1, 2017 at 2:46 comment added Monica Cellio In ancient Israel the four-room house had livestock on the first floor and living quarters on the second. What people were doing by Rabbanan Gamliel's time, though, I do not know.
Dec 1, 2017 at 1:09 comment added Double AA There's the rabbi who locked himself in an attic for years to answer all the questions in yechezkel (Shabbat 13b). There's also the famous 18 things
Dec 1, 2017 at 0:50 comment added Dov F The word "aliyah" does not necessarily mean "attic," but rather "upper level" as opposed to the main level. This is pure speculation, but perhaps the main level was for public gatherings and the upper level was for smaller, more specialized gatherings. Some yeshivas nowadays have such buildings.
