Do you think these marks might be for calibration of the instruments?
Pompeii, Timgad are examples of the model cities the Romans created using a basic model at the height of the empire.

I always thought that the world’s second oldest profession was toolmaking? Second only to the “entrepreneurial endeavours” of the female variety?
Full disclosure though, I am the son of a toolmaker. So I might be a bit biased. Having said that, if I were thrust back into prehistoric times, I’d want a Swiss Army knife before I’d want a Total Station.
I always say that surveying is really the oldest profession.
