Aqueducts These were used to carry water from place to place. The water could be carried from miles and miles away. The flow of the water was based on only gravity. They were made of concrete, the workers had to clean them every once and a while because leaves and foliage could get in the water and make it un- sanitary. Most of the water was needed for public bath houses. When the water was low they would be able to block parts of the aqueducts so that water could only go to the public bath houses and the privet bath houses. The aqueducts were very important.
