Wasn't it exposed on one of these half-pipes? If it wasn't, then my entire life was a lie.

They were typically covered. Aqueducts are just a part of the impressive water systems romans created, which could consists of tens of kilometers of even slope, with tunnels and all.

Pigeons and mosquitoes came from America after 1492, Pierre. Seriously, it's common knowledge.
>>
>>76630985
The water wasn't still. It didn't stagnate. Mosquitoes in Europe hate moving water, they seek still water bodies. Also the pidgeon poop would just flow and dissolve (also not as many pidgeos as there are now).

Hungary needs to be nuked. Subhumans, all of us.

Com'on, man.
If you payed any attention in history class you would know they had enslaved archers charged with killing pigeons.

There weren't many pigeons back then, since people were very poor and had to eat pigeons on Tuesdays or drink coffee made of snow.

If they should be nuked, what about the ones blowing stuff that's twice as old in Iraq? Drink the. blood of every man, woman and child there? Make it so not even a single lizard can survive in the desert?

It's not about the age of relics anon. Just because something is twice as old it doesn't make it twice as valuable.

That said, I thought you Americans were taking care of that. Hadn't you bombed them back into the stone ages yet?
