Wheelbarrows

No really substantial posts planned for today, but I'm about a third of the way through this article on the history of the wheelbarrow and it's pretty damned interesting. Not only does it provide some useful information about transportation in a low-tech setting, it's pretty good at capturing the feel of a setting like what I'm aiming for in The Nine and Thirty Kingdoms campaign: any infrastructure that may have once existed has decayed so much that it's nearly useless, and people stick close to the rivers as their primary transport, but would use things like carts and wheelbarrows for the rare times they depart from the waterways.
