The Romans didn't invent the Groma. The Greeks were using it in the 4th century BCE, after which the Etruscans and then Romans obtained the technology. Although who invented it is a matter for debate, the most likely inventors are probably the Mesopotamians, the source of many revolutionary inventions including the most basic of all inventions, the wheel, the plough and the sail. They also divided time into the sexagesimal system (base-60) that we still use to this day.
