[edit] Ancient vs Historic

This article seems to be a hybrid between Ancient roads (of Europe/Asia Middle East) and Historic (19th+early 20th) roads of N America. As defined in Ancient history:

Ancient history is the study of the written past from the beginning of human history until the Early Middle Ages

Thus I suggest that the Historic roads of N America don't fit into this category.--ReddyRose 12:23, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

I agree - this article is becoming muddled. It seems obvious to me(!) that an article headed 'Ancient roads' should refer to just that topic, and those routes that are post-Middle Ages should not be included here. -- Carbonix (talk) 16:47, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
