A compressed history timeline of that period would do it for you... there are also articles on the period, and you might even find some eye witness accounts. Not absolutely certain about that last part... but it is possible.

Find it all at the Leap Over Web Clutter section of New Free Books.

The Romans were good at building and engineering, but not so good at inventing machines. There were always plenty of slaves to do the nasty jobs, so nobody bothered to think up machines that could take their place.
