yes, or historic=road with historic:civilization=ancient_roman

I’ve used both variants in the past but just had a second thought: is this 
about roads that are still with the original paving or also applicable to roads 
that were built by the romans but now have different paving (and maybe are 
wider, and maybe even left the original position for small parts)?
