The Cloaca Maxima (English: Greatest Sewer) was located in the Antico District of Rome, and acted as the city's primary sewer system.

It is believed to have been constructed in around 600BC in ancient Rome in order to drain local marshes and remove the waste of one of the world's most populous cities. It carried an effluent to the Tiber River, which ran beside the city. This made it one of the most innovative pieces of infrastructure of its time, as well as one of the world's earliest sewage systems.
