dc.abstract.enThis article examines how technological innovations in ancient Rome – particularly in road construction – contributed to the empire’s durability and efficiency. By analyzing legal sources, archaeological findings, and historical texts, the author demonstrates that modern digital technologies (AI, 3D modeling, laser scanning) facilitate the reconstruction of ancient infrastructure and highlight the continued relevance of Roman engineering and legal principles. The author argues that Roman engineering solutions, along with legal regulations pertaining to public infrastructure, contributed to the creation of a durable and efficient communication network throughout the Roman Empire. The study is based on the analysis of literary sources, legal texts, and archaeological findings. It demonstrates that Roman law focused primarily on safeguarding public access and ensuring the maintenance of infrastructure, rather than on prescribing detailed technical norms governing construction. Contemporary digital technologies enable in-depth investigations into ancient Roman construction techniques and facilitate the reconstruction of historical structures. The author emphasizes that the engineering and organizational accomplishments of ancient Rome remain relevant and continue to serve as an inspiration for modern interdisciplinary research concerning civilizational heritage. The article concludes by asserting that both ancient and modern technological innovations constitute vital drivers of civilizational development and progress.
