The Early Society: Garden Fountains
The Early Society: Garden Fountains Archaeological excavations in Minoan Crete in Greece have revealed a number of types of conduits. They not solely aided with the water supply, they extracted rainwater and wastewater as well. The principle materials utilized were stone or terracotta. There were terracotta pipes, both circular and rectangular as well as canals made from the same materials. Among these were terracotta pipes that were U-shaped or a shorter, cone-like form which have exclusively appeared in Minoan society.
Knossos Palace had an advanced plumbing system made of terracotta conduits which ran up to three meters below ground. The pipelines also had other uses such as collecting water and directing it to a primary place for storing. These clay piping were essential to perform: Below ground Water Transportation: This particular system’s hidden nature may mean that it was originally manufactured for some sort of ritual or to circulate water to limited groups.

The Broad Array of Wall Water Fountains
The Broad Array of Wall Water Fountains Having a wall fountain in your backyard or on a veranda is ideal when you wish to relax.
Additionally, it can be made to fit into any wall space since it does not take up much room. Both the stand alone and mounted models must have a spout, a water basin, internal tubing, and a pump. There are any number of different styles available on the market including traditional, contemporary, classical, or Asian. Usually quite big, freestanding wall fountains, also known as floor fountains, have their basins on the ground.
It is possible to incorporate a wall-mounted water feature onto an already existing wall or built into a new wall. Integrating this type of water feature into your landscape brings a cohesiveness to the look you want to achieve rather than making it seem as if the fountain was merely added later.
