The Early, Largely Ignored, Water-Moving Alternative

The Early, Largely Ignored, Water-Moving Alternative In 1588, Agrippa’s water-lifting invention lured the attention and praise of Andrea Bacci but that turned out to be one of the very last mentions of the technology. It may possibly have become dated when the Villa Medici was in a position to obtain water from the Acqua Felice, the early contemporary aqueduct, in 1592.
