Aqueduct - Caesarea Martima.

Aqueduct at Caesarea Maritima. Located by the sea-shore of Israel about halfway between Tel Aviv and Haifa. It is the site of one of the most important cities of the Roman World, the capital of the province of Judaea. The city was founded between 22 and 10 BC by Herod the Great (37-4 BC) as an urban centre and harbor. The port of Caesarea had no reliable source of fresh water when built. King Herod commissioned a raised aqueduct to deliver water from the springs near Shuni. The aqueduct can be seen on the beach of Caesarea, north of the ancient city.
