∙ 8y agoThe structure which carries water to distant places was and is still called aqueduct. The Romans did not invent aqueducts. They existed before them, which is not surprising, given the importance of water. The Romans introduced the innovation of putting the water conduit on bridgework when it needed to cross rivers or valleys or in the plain in order to keep a gradient to keep the water moving by gravity.
