Description

The Hydraulic State examines the engineering expertise behind water systems at major ancient World Heritage sites across South America, the Middle East, and Asia. Through archaeological analysis and new methodologies, this Routledge study explores how ancient civilisations designed and managed hydraulic infrastructure for urban and agricultural water supply. The book investigates diverse examples including Peruvian and Bolivian Andean field systems, Nabataean water management at Petra, the Roman Pont du Gard distribution network, the Minoan site of Knossos, and other sophisticated water systems that sustained ancient societies. Ideal for archaeology students and scholars interested in how ancient engineering solved complex water challenges across different regions and time periods.

Key Features

Explores hydraulic engineering technology used in ancient World Heritage sites across South America, the Middle East, and Asia for urban and agricultural water supply.

Analyzes agricultural field system designs from ancient Peruvian and Bolivian Andean societies using archaeological methods and new analytical techniques.

Examines water management systems at significant sites including Nabataean Petra, the Roman Pont du Gard castellum, and Knossos.

Published by Routledge as part of the Studies in Archaeology series for higher education and professional archaeological research.

Combines historical analysis with contemporary archaeological methodologies to understand ancient hydraulic infrastructure and engineering solutions.
