Sparta (Wrath of Sparta) Level 3

Stone Cutter

Artisans and skilled labourers, working and shaping stone in-situ.

Although it was greatly advanced by the Romans, many other cultures had long traditions of quarrying and mining. Over time, skilled freemen and artisan stonemasons appeared, who could extract and prepare the raw materials on-site. Gold and gem mining in Egypt, for example, began with the extraction of material from easily accessible alluvial deposits, while shaft mining in Nubia began as early as 1300BC. In the latter, ancient methods such as fire-setting were employed, using water to rapidly cool the heated stone and shatter the rock face. Quarrying stone, for great cities and monuments, was well advanced by the 3rd century BC. From the Parthenon to the Pyramids, the capacity of the ancients to extract, work, sculpt, and transport stone is still evident today.
