1. What do we know about Roman coaches, notably their suspension system and their steering mechanism? [size=75:1pus6gk4]
There is one reconstruction in the RG Museum at Cologne, but unfortunately they did not give much details on its construction.[/size]

2. Did the Gauls really invent the barrel fastened with iron rings and did it really spread over Rome to all over the world?

3. Could someone expand on the Roman use of the lathe?

4. Any comments on my assertion (page before) that a certain Julius Caesar may have actually invented the first newspaper?

I know you can do it. 8)
