Re: Chariot Toilet from Ancient Rome
Quite an interesting read (if you're silly about thousand year old rock piled on top of each other like I am...). Also a reminder that we tend to project what we know onto the world, even if there isn't that much reason to do so. Me at least, when I think of roman sewers and the sewer system had mentally likened it to our modern day system. But while it shares similarities and a name, it's nowhere near the same thing. You learn something new every day
