Aqua Tepula

Lazio, Italy

The Aqua Tepula is an ancient Roman aqueduct completed in 125 BC by censors Gnaeus Servilius Caepio and Lucius Cassius Longinus Ravilla. The water the aqueduct carried was tepid, and probably thus unpalatable. It is not known how much water the original aqueduct carried, but the amount conducted to the city was smaller than that of the Aqua Marcia. After a (major) reconstruction by Agrippa in 33 BC the aqueduct delivered to the city daily 400 quinariae -- 17,800 m3 (4, 700, 000 US gal).
