The Acqua Antoniniana was an aqueduct located in the Italian city of Rome.

Description

The Acqua Antoniniana was located in the Campagna district. It was in the south east side of Campagna where the district borders with the Antico district. Combined with Acqua Marcia there were three sections of broken aqueducts that could be renovated.

Database Entry

Built by Caracalla in 212, the Antoniniana was a secondary channel of the Marcia designed exclusively to supply water to Caracalla's private baths. Thanks to several repairs by various Popes the Antoniniana remained functional for longer than it's counterparts and well into the 10th century, at which point it was supplied for several hundred more years solely by the tears of peasants.
