Rewards for Obedience
What was once thought wasteland can be reclaimed for agricultural use.Throughout the ancient period there was a drive to find new exploitable land, either by clearing forests or, more frequently, draining lakes, marshes and flooded plains. As was often the case in other developmental areas, the Greeks were the first to solve many ancient agricultural problems. Their simple solutions to the problems of drainage and land reclamation worked by positioning long tunnels at the lowest edge of an area of land intended for arable farming the effects of natural drainage were drastically improved. They also raised sloping ground by 'infilling' uneven ground with rocks, then adding clay and top soil to the desired level. As you might expect, before long the techniques they pioneered spread throughout the known world - 'by osmosis' as you might say! - and especially following the Roman expansion following their defeat of Hannibal.
