Water Transport Strategies in Ancient Rome

Water Transport Strategies in Ancient Rome With the building of the first raised aqueduct in Rome, the Aqua Anio Vetus in 273 BC, folks who lived on the city’s foothills no longer had to rely solely on naturally-occurring spring water for their demands. When aqueducts or springs weren’t accessible, people living at raised elevations turned to water pulled from underground or rainwater, which was made possible by wells and cisterns. In the early sixteenth century, the city began to utilize the water that ran below ground through Acqua Vergine to furnish water to Pincian Hill. As originally constructed, the aqueduct was provided along the length of its channel with pozzi (manholes) constructed at regular intervals. Although they were originally planned to make it possible to service the aqueduct, Cardinal Marcello Crescenzi started using the manholes to collect water from the channel, commencing when he obtained the property in 1543. Reportedly, the rainwater cistern on his property wasn’t sufficient to meet his needs. That is when he decided to create an access point to the aqueduct that ran beneath his residence.
