Original Water Supply Solutions in The City Of Rome

Original Water Supply Solutions City Rome 450793433686520.jpg Original Water Supply Solutions in The City Of Rome Rome’s first elevated aqueduct, Aqua Anio Vetus, was built in 273 BC; before that, citizens living at higher elevations had to rely on natural creeks for their water. If citizens residing at higher elevations did not have access to springs or the aqueduct, they’d have to depend on the other existing systems of the time, cisterns that accumulated rainwater from the sky and subterranean wells that drew the water from under ground. From the beginning of the sixteenth century, water was routed to Pincian Hill via the subterranean channel of Acqua Vergine. Pozzi, or manholes, were constructed at standard intervals along the aqueduct’s channel. While these manholes were manufactured to make it simpler and easier to manage the aqueduct, it was also feasible to use containers to remove water from the channel, which was done by Cardinal Marcello Crescenzi from the time he purchased the property in 1543 to his passing in 1552. It seems that, the rainwater cistern on his property wasn’t good enough to fulfill his needs. That is when he made a decision to create an access point to the aqueduct that ran underneath his property.

Bernini's father, a renowned Florentine sculptor, mentored his young son, and they eventually relocated in Rome, to fully express their art in the form of public water features and water features. An excellent worker, the young Bernini acquired compliments and patronage of many popes and important artists. At the start he was known for his sculptural abilities.
