I have been in a place that was on the other end of the spectrum. I used to think that there was no way that anyone built tunnels that were 10' wide in ancient times. Then I was in The Forum (in Rome) and they had some tunnels that were 10' by 10'. It reminded me of that old sage advice column where the person asks if two people in platemail on horses could travel down a tunnel side by side (I now think they actually could.).
The catacombs of Paris (as seen in As Above, So Below) had a lot of tunnels about 5'×2', or even 6'×3'
ReplyDeleteThat sackful of Potions of Diminuation might just come in handy after all!
