The Roman Aquaducts
The Pont du Gard aqueduct was built during the first century AD, specifically between 40 and 60 AD. It was constructed as part of a larger water supply system to bring water to the city of Nîmes in what is now modern-day France.
The bridge has three rows of arches on top of each other to reach the desired height. The Romans were the first people to make widespread use of the arch. Arches have been found in other civilisations, but were rare. The structural strength of the arch enabled the building of structures such as the Pont du grand.
Samuel Francis du Pont was born on September 27, 1803.
