Appian Way


Appian Way, paving stones.
Roman roads were built so well that some are still in use today. They built their roads in this manner: from bottom to top they contained rubble, flat slabs in mortar, concrete and gravel, and tightly laid flat paving stones. Each road had its own curb (Curb stones) and a drainage ditch.
