  • Chapter Ii Legends in Tourism and Hospitality
    Andrew O. Coggins, Jr. Chapter II Legends in Tourism, Hospitality & Passenger Shipping 20 CHAPTER II LEGENDS IN TOURISM AND HOSPITALITY: 2.1 The Quest for Blessings: Like deeds worth a song or a story to be passed down from generation to generation, tourism/pilgrimage destinations worth the cost or danger of the trip have existed since ancient times. These destinations were initially sites associated with a particular deity, maybe the deity’s birthplace or the location of a crucial incident in the deity’s life. As travel became easier, destinations developed that were associated with literature and great events such as wars and battles. The initial development of travel, versus migration, is closely tied to the change in government from city-states to unified nations in Egypt and Mesopotamia around 3000 B.C. Effective government required efficient means of communication. In Egypt, these developed mainly as water transport along the Nile while in Mesopotamia they developed conversely as road systems. The development of money and writing, which made non- barter trade and record-keeping possible, made travel over wide areas both feasible and profitable. With the invention of the cart, first four wheels, later two, heavier loads could be carried faster and longer than by porters or single animals. The security from robbers required for the movement of government personnel also benefited trade. By 1750 B.C., one could travel the 120 miles between Larsa and Babylon at an average speed of 2½ to 3½ miles per hour (Casson, 1974). Until the invention of the railroad in the early 1800s, water transportation was always easier than land transportation.
