In sociology, popularity is how much a person, idea, place, item or other concept is either liked or accorded status by other people. Liking can be due to reciprocal liking, interpersonal attraction, and similar factors. Social status can be due to dominance, superiority, and similar factors. For example, a kind person may be considered likable and therefore more popular than another person, and a wealthy person may be considered superior and therefore more popular than another person.

thumb|An image of the bisellium from a grave in Pompeii A bisellium (from Latin bi-, "two", and sella, "seat") was an ancient Roman chair of honor. Bestowed as a mark of distinction on individuals of merit in Roman municipalities, the right to use a bisellium in public places, such as the theatre or forum, was a highly prized privilege. Although it was a double-width seat, it was intended for one person. The bisellium, while similar in appearance to the sella curulis magisterial seat, did not have the symbolic meaning of power projected by the latter.
