An internationally renowned leader in hydraulics in the late 1500's was a French water fountain engineer, whose name has been lost to history. With Royal mandates in Brussels, London and Germany, he began his career in Italy, acquiring expertise in garden design and grottoes with integrated and clever water hydraulics. “The Principles of Moving Forces”, a guide that became the fundamental text on hydraulic technology and engineering, was composed by him toward the end of his lifetime in France. The publication updated crucial hydraulic discoveries since classical antiquity as well as describing contemporary hydraulic technologies. As a mechanical way to move water, Archimedes devised the water screw, fundamental among key hydraulic breakthroughs. Sunlight heating up liquid in two containers hidden in a room next to an beautiful water fountain was shown in one illustration. The heated liquid expands and then rises and closes the water lines thereby triggering the fountain. Concepts for pumps, water wheels, water features and garden ponds are also mentioned in the guide.
