FineCouriers are distinguished from ordinary mailservices by features such as speed, security, tracking, signature, specialization and individualization of express services, and swift delivery times, which are optional for most everyday mail services. As a premium service, couriers are usually more expensive than standard mail services, and their use is normally limited to packages where one or more of these features are considered important enough to warrant the cost.Courier services operate on all scales, from within specific towns or cities, to regional, national and global services. Large courier companies include DHL, DTDC, FedEx, EMS International, TNT, UPS, India Post and Aramex. These offer services worldwide, typically via a hub and spoke model.Before the industrial eraEditCourier or postman, Japan, hand-coloured albumen print by Felice Beato, between 1863 and 1877Japanese military bike courier pursued by Cossacks (1904). On foot, military couriers are known as runners.In ancient history, messages were hand-delivered using a variety of methods, including runners, homing pigeons and riders on horseback. Before the introduction of mechanized courier services, foot messengers physically ran miles to their destinations. Xenophon attributed the first use of couriers to the Persian prince Cyrus the Younger.Famously, the Ancient Greek courier Pheidippides is said to have run 26 miles from Marathon to Athens to bring the news of the Greek victory over the Persians in 490 BCE. The long-distance race known as a marathonis named for this run.AnabasiiEditStarting at the time of Augustus, the ancient Greeks and Romans made use of a class of horse and chariot-mounted couriers called anabasii to quickly bring messages and commands long distances.[1] The word anabasii comes from the Greek αναβασις(adscensus, mounting).[2] They were contemporary with the Greek hemeredromi, who carried their messages by foot.In Roman Britain, Rufinus made use of anabasii, as documented in Saint Jeromes memoirs (adv. Ruffinum, l. 3. c. 1.): Idcircone Cereales et Anabasii tui per diversas provincias cucurrerunt, ut laudes meas legerent? (Is it on that account that your Cereales and Anabasii circulated through many provinces, so that they might read my praises?)Middle AgesEditIn the Middle Ages, royal courts maintained their own messengers who were paid little more than common labourers.
