Outdoor Fountains Lost to History

Outdoor Fountains Lost History 519739037258557.jpg Outdoor Fountains Lost to History Villages and communities depended on functional water fountains to conduct water for preparing food, bathing, and cleaning from nearby sources like ponds, channels, or springs. A source of water higher in elevation than the fountain was necessary to pressurize the movement and send water squirting from the fountain's spout, a system without equal until the later half of the 19th century. Inspiring and impressive, prominent water fountains have been constructed as memorials in nearly all societies. If you saw the earliest fountains, you wouldn't recognize them as fountains. A natural stone basin, crafted from rock, was the 1st fountain, used for containing water for drinking and spiritual purposes. Stone basins are thought to have been first used around 2,000 BC. Gravity was the power source that operated the earliest water fountains. These ancient water fountains were created to be functional, frequently situated along reservoirs, streams and waterways to supply drinking water. Fountains with ornamental Gods, mythological monsters, and creatures began to show up in Rome in about 6 BC, made from rock and bronze. A well-designed collection of reservoirs and aqueducts kept Rome's public fountains supplied with fresh water.
