Roman slaves were an important part of ancient Rome's economy. With that said these unfortunate people had to be safely transported from the slave markets to areas where their owners needed them to work. This was accomplished by using large horse drawn carts on the roadways and using sea transport by ships capable for any rough weather they might encounter.
