This is the fourth of my 'What Did the Romans Ever do for Us?' caches. Hopefully this shouldn't be too hard with a bit of lateral thinking - the puzzle part is harder than number 3, and finding the cache itself should not be too hard. Cache is a small micro.

Puzzle rating = 3.5, cache difficulty rating = 2.5
