 * 1) Aqueducts were artifical pipelines used to carry water great distances.
 * 2) Romans built massive aqueducts that stretched for miles.
 * 3) The water was used for many things private/public bathing, drinking fountains, cooking and other uses so unless you woke up rich you would have to bath and drink with every one else.
 * 4) The water sat in large tanks and was then distributed to the public and private houses that could afford it.
