Aqueducts of Rome
how much each aqueduct brings to points outside the City, what proportion to each quarter within the City; how many public reservoirs there are, and from these how much is delivered to public works, how much to ornamental fountains[1] (munera, as the more polite call them), how much to the water-basins; how much is granted in the name of Caesar; how much for private uses by favour of the Emperor; what is the law with regard to the construction and maintenance of the aqueducts, what penalties enforce it, whether established by resolutions of the Senate or by edicts of the Emperors.
