How did ancient Roman fountains work without electric pumps?
In: 5
Romans were fucking AMAZING at architecture.
Rome was situated a few miles away from some natural springs up in the mountains that were naturally higher than Rome itself.
And they built aqueducts so well and so perfectly designed that the water naturally flowed at a good pace down from the mountains and down into the city itself, where it was directed to various fountains and bath houses.
