2.  Roads were very important to the Romans, they made travelling easier between towns and cities.  How Romans made roads First they made a base out of clay Then they laid a layer of bigger stones on top followed by a layer of smaller stones Next they compacted the stones Then they dropped kerb stones in each side Finally they put sand down and curved it.

4.  The Romans began to use a lot of concrete in their buildings in 60AD  The Romans made concrete out of volcanic ash from Mount Vesuvius and mixed it with lime and water  They made huge buildings out of it such as the Pantheon in Rome. The dome on the Pantheon is still the worlds largest unreinforced concrete dome.
