EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Roman Building Tools: A Glimpse into Ancient Craftsmanship at Hadrian's Wall" This evocative photograph, N100179 from Historic England's Photo Library, offers a captivating glimpse into the rich history of Roman engineering and construction techniques, as embodied by these authentic Roman building tools discovered at Hadrian's Wall. Top row, from left to right: The first tool is a mason's hammer, a versatile instrument essential for shaping and cutting stone. Its flat, heavy head was used for splitting and breaking stones, while its chisel-like end was employed for more intricate carving and shaping. The second tool is a plumb bob, a simple yet ingenious device used to ensure verticality and levelness in construction. By suspending a weighted bob from a string, builders could ensure that structures were plumb, contributing significantly to the remarkable accuracy and precision of Roman architecture. Bottom row, from left to right: The slater's hammer, the third tool, was a specialized tool used in the installation and repair of roofing materials, such as slate or clay tiles. Its flat, broad head was used to shape and smooth these materials, while the pointed end was used to drive them into place. Lastly, the chisel, a ubiquitous tool in any construction site, was used for cutting and shaping various materials, including stone, wood, and metal. These Roman building tools, preserved and documented by Historic England, provide a tangible connection to the past, offering valuable insights into the techniques and technologies employed by the ancient Romans in constructing their impressive architectural feats, such as Hadrian's Wall.
