AQUEDUCTS

  • They were used to carry fresh water from a stream to people
  • The aqueducts seemed to have an arch in between the pillars to distribute weight
  • Springs were the most common source of water for the aqueducts
  • Gravity would help move water down the aqueducts
  • Bridges were similar to aqueducts but they moved people over obstacles
