The 17th century saw a revival of interest in ancient worlds of the Greeks and Romans. These were, for the most, ideas, political thinking and philosophies that were of interest to scholars and were buried in Latin texts for the well educated. Some, however, were of practical value. Some 17th century inventions were adaptations of what had been to known by ancient Roman engineers. One such was called a "waywiser" that Romans used for measuring roads. This was applied to a systematic measurement of English roads in the famous survey of them conducted during the reign of Charles II. It would take a few more centuries before most European roads were made as well as such famous Roman roads such as the Appian Way.
