Member-MSPS 2020 Annual Meeting Saturday PM
$100.00
Description
Rectangular systems, conveyancing and surveying actually began during the Roman Empire. Much of that part of the world was established under a system known as Centuriation (100’s) and layouts on the landscape in places like France are barely distinguishable from those in the Midwestern U.S., if at all. Centuriation was brought to North America in two phases – conceptionally by British colonists and practically by Thomas Jefferson, who learned the system while in Europe while serving the U.S. in France, and later designed the first systems in America.
