one haughty aristocrat even kept an elephant
“Populist” imperialists then: we must ban vehicles to make our cities better for our citizens.
“Populist” imperialists now: every citizen must drive a Ford f150.
Maybe we do need to R E T U R N.
as a result of these measures the closest equivalents of parking lots
unless this is the direct answer to a hilarious question about roman ‘parking lots’ this has to be the most car-brained way to explain the concept of stabling a horse i’ve ever read
If it’s from the thread I’m thinking of, that’s exactly what the question was. It was an askhistorians thread about how so many people were able to get to the coliseum in Rome and someone literally asked if they had a parking lot for chariots
AMERICANSThat’s logical if you actually had a cart which most would not. You do not store carriages and carts with horses.
Your ignorance is painful Dolores.
You do not store carriages and carts with horses
you’re joking, right? yes you literally do, the draft animal is the thing that moved the damn cart. an unhitched carriage or wagon, while it doesn’t have to be physically inside a stable itself, it is not the same as a parked car, the bit that makes it go is in a stable.
You don’t store it attached to the horse as that makes it harder for them to rest. They are in fact not stored attached.
i explained that. the place this is done is called a stable lmao. a stable is no more a parking lot than a junkyard is -all the parts for functional vehicle in one place, but not assembled
Whats the source?
wierd theory , maybe this little urban tweak / tradition massivly contributet to the Roman success … as it forces the “Passiv income Class” into a “celebrety” kind of person and City Patron , (always watched and to be screamed at when somebody wants to endure the social cost) Thereby giving rise to the Massiv Populist Building Projects , in which they themself then could Legitimize their Landrents etc…
Drunk driving in ancient rome must have been fun
