| | |
| '''Aqueducts''' were stone structures found throughout the former {{Wiki|Roman Empire}}. They provided fresh water to the different baths, fountains and households of the ancient cities. Sizeable networks existed in the cities of [[Rome]] and [[Constantinople]]; the majority of these aqueducts in Rome, however, were in states of disrepair due to [[Borgia]] rule during the Renaissance.
| |
| | |
| During the [[liberation of Rome]], the [[Assassins|Assassin]] [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] restored the aqueducts and cleared Borgia influence from around the structures.

| The [[Acquedotto Claudia]] was an aqueduct that was found in Rome in the [[Antico District|Antico district]]. Like many of the aqueducts found in Rome, this Aqueduct was in a state of disrepair. When Ezio came to Rome, he paid [[Architects]] to renovate all four broken sections of the aqueduct.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *Even when Ezio had finished renovating the broken aqueducts, the map still displayed their locations and they were still referred to as broken aqueducts.
