(plural aqueducts). 1  An artificial channel that is constructed to convey water from one location to another. 2  A structure carrying water over a river or depression, especially in regards to ancient aqueducts.
The aqueduct is built of unmortared, brick-like granite blocks. During the Roman era, each of the three tallest arches displayed a sign in bronze letters, indicating the name of its builder along with the date of construction. Today, two niches are still visible, one on each side of the aqueduct.
