Transport and transportation is and was allways an important factor for a “modern” society. Roads, railroads, containerships and air crafts are all important for us today, to keep the world moving, and they are all actors in our understanding of transportation.
This blog, however, is mostly concerned with the Romans and their idea of transportation. I will concentrate my writing on roman wagons and wagontechnology, but also make parrallels on more modern material, whereever I find it interesting.
I hope to give (and get!) a better “vista” of the wagons and landtransportation in the roman world.
