novakaqueducts

Aqueducts. One of the most important parts of the ancient Roman civilization, they were made to carry fresh water for all the people of Rome and the other cities. Rome, being the largest city out of most it's provences had the most aqueducts: eleven which were biuld over the course of 500 years! These numerous aqueducts all went to public baths, private homes of the rich, and foutains (which were also a source of drinking water.) All this drained into sewers where they were cleared of waste, sort of sounds like our sewer system huh? Now, in order for aqueducts to work well they need careful planning before biulding them, lots of surveying work was done using all sorts of equipment
