How far a horse travels in one day

[Mark Oliva]

I'm going to stick this thread. It's too much of a gem to lose over time.

It is hard to ride away from it. And then, one still wonders how long it will take to do it!

Well, I just found this:

http://orbis.stanford.edu/

It's an interactive map that shows precisely how much time it took to travel on roman times. it includes a bunch of different ways to travel (on foot, on horse, a marching army, on boats, with a cart, etc.), it also includes prices and alternative routes depending on whether you want to travel fast or cheap.

TL;DR: It's a roman empire travel planner.

And here's that doc in pdf format, just in case the Internet eats the original at a later date.

Thanks, AA!

What about while drawing a carriage?
If a convoy is traveling, and they have a pack horse and a sleeping/camper carriage, they'd travel much slower.
