About this app

As the Roman cities were growing under the supervision of Rome it was difficult for residents to find clean drinking water. Sometimes the sources were drying up, sometimes rivers were infected. For this reason the Romans built aqueducts, providing consistently clean water to their cities.
The Roman Aqueduct was built to supply Nicopolis with water. It is one of the most important structures of the Roman period in northwestern Greece.
