Description

Explore the connection between engineering and civilization with The Hydraulic State by Routledge. This scholarly work examines the hydraulic engineering technology that supported water system constructions across many ancient World Heritage sites. From South America to the Middle East and Asia, the book investigates how urban and agricultural water supply systems shaped early societies. Author Ortloff utilizes various methods and techniques, including new approaches to archaeology, to analyze historical water management. The text covers a wide range of significant locations, such as agricultural field systems in ancient Peruvian and Bolivian Andean societies, the water management systems found at Nabataean Petra, the Roman Pont du Garde water distribution castellum, and the Minoan site of Knossos. This book provides a detailed look at how ancient peoples managed their most vital resource to sustain growing populations and complex urban environments.
