Rome’s First Water Delivery Solutions

Rome’s First Water Delivery Solutions Aqua Anio Vetus, the first raised aqueduct built in Rome, commenced providing the people living in the hills with water in 273 BC, even though they had relied on natural springs up till then. If people living at higher elevations did not have access to springs or the aqueduct, they’d have to depend on the remaining existing solutions of the day, cisterns that compiled rainwater from the sky and subterranean wells that received the water from below ground. Starting in the sixteenth century, a new strategy was introduced, using Acqua Vergine’s subterranean sections to provide water to Pincian Hill. The aqueduct’s channel was made accessible by pozzi, or manholes, that were situated along its length when it was first created. During the roughly 9 years he had the residence, from 1543 to 1552, Cardinal Marcello Crescenzi utilized these manholes to take water from the channel in containers, though they were actually built for the function of maintaining and maintaining the aqueduct. It appears that, the rainwater cistern on his property wasn’t adequate to satisfy his needs. To give himself with a much more effective system to obtain water, he had one of the manholes opened, giving him access to the aqueduct below his property.
