Aqueducts | Week 3 Social |

a Aqueducts is an artificial channel for conveying water, typically in the form of a bridge across a valley or other gap.

 3 important facts

2) The water was supplied through a network of aqueducts, which acted as arteries throughout Rome; the city was equipped with 11 aqueducts constructed over a period of about 500 years.
3) The management of Roman aqueducts was recorded by a man called Frontinus.

It is still used today. You can find some around Rome.
