Thanks everybody for the imformation.<br>
As my knowledge of German is limited to about three words, I don't think Junkelman would be of much help to me Sander. Unfortunately, at $85 Equus is rather out of my budget range too! However, I did notice on checking that Ann Hyland has a recent publication "The horse in the ancient world" which is available in the U.K at a more reasonable price, so maybe I'll get that sent out to me.<br>
Your link is very interesting Antoninus Lucretius. As you said it has everything including how not to strangle your horse! I really hadn't appreciated just how sophisticated the Roman transport system was. Quite an eye opener.<br>
I don't know about motion sickness, but I found Caius Fabius' photograph in the end and it seems that someone has actually reconstructed a Roman wagon. There were no comments on the comfort factor though!<br>
