Imagine trekking across vast landscapes where the ground beneath you is soaked with water or marshy and soft. How would you cross without getting stuck or sinking? Enter the causeway, a raised road or track designed to conquer such challenging terrains, connecting us across low or wet grounds where regular roads dare not go.

Understanding how people overcame geographical obstacles in the time of our story is key to imagining the adventures and challenges faced by characters like Marcus Aquila. But causeways aren't just ancient history; they're used all around the world today, showcasing human ingenuity in connecting places that nature has put barriers between.

We're going to watch a video that will take us on a tour of some of the most interesting and important causeways worldwide. 

Have you ever been on a causeway?
