If you were sent back to the roman era and could only bring a backpack of goods. What would you bring?

    Either 1, a bunch of textbooks and encyclopedias. Or 2, a tablet/computer with said texts downloaded, a battery pack for said tablet/computer, and a few fold out solar panels or maybe one of those hand crank things. If I still have space I’d bring a soldering iron, a bunch of tips for it, flux and a bunch of different solders. Maybe a few spare parts for the laptop.

      Tablet with tons of downloaded info + solar panels is my answer too. If you were wise about how you used the info you could be a demigod. Just knowing the process of how to refine aluminum could make you the wealthiest person on the planet.
