The Aqueduct Hunter: febbraio 2010
http://romanaqueducts.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Revealing the secrets under the streets of Ancient Rome. Mercoledì 24 febbraio 2010. Filming the Aqua Virgo. Cold, wet, in the pitch black, twenty-five metres under the city of Rome, we pushed forwards against the water of Marcus Vespanius Agrippa’s Aqueduct, which has flowed continuously since 19BC, and I prayed that our new high-definition camera wasn’t going to drop into the water and flow all the way back to the Trevi fountain.

The Aqueduct Hunter: Going to meet the owners
http://romanaqueducts.blogspot.com/2010/03/going-to-meet-owners.html
Revealing the secrets under the streets of Ancient Rome. Martedì 2 marzo 2010. Going to meet the owners. It's Tuesday 2nd March, about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and I've got my first appointment to meet the owners of the Aqueduct Spring source that we announced in January. I'm kind of scared and on-edge, and I've asked a representative of the local archaeological society to come with me. Iscriviti a: Commenti sul post (Atom). Our Friends on the Internet.

The Aqueduct Hunter: That rascally fig tree
http://romanaqueducts.blogspot.com/2010/03/that-rascally-fig-tree.html
Revealing the secrets under the streets of Ancient Rome. Mercoledì 3 marzo 2010. That rascally fig tree. We have one serious enemy in our attempt to preserve the spring chamber and spring gallery of the Aqua Traiana. The spring chamber was lined with rock-hard waterproof hydraulic cement, and that cement was painted with Egyptian blue paint - paint which gives us a sure and certain date for the construction of that chamber. Root-tips are covered in bio-films which help them absorb mineral nutrients, and ...

http://romanaqueducts.blogspot.com/2010/03/old-spiral-staircase.html
Revealing the secrets under the streets of Ancient Rome. Martedì 2 marzo 2010. The Old Spiral Staircase. The old Spriral Staircase curls down for twenty-five metres into the eery space beneath the city of Rome, where archaeology and ancient tunnels have laid undisturbed since a forgotten time. Peering down from the top as we prepared to film the aqueduct, we saw the shimmer of the purest water rippling yellow-gold lights right in the centre of the stairway where the ancient Aqueduct passes beneath.
