The ancient Romans were outstanding builders. Among their greatest achievements were the stone-paved roads throughout the Roman Empire. The enormous Roman Empire boasted a vast and extensive network of roads. The road network was essential in maintaining the stability of the empire and its expansion. The streets were used for transport from one location to another. “The Roman roads were probably at their best during the first century after Augustus had put an end to war and disorder. . . . Thus St. Paul traveled in the best and safest period,” wrote New Testament archaeologist W.M. Ramsay.
