Geocache Description:



Aquaduct

The old city Caesarea required a steady flow of running water. Initially its waters came from the local wells. However, as the population grew to several hundred thousand people, a large scale aqueduct was required to bring the water from a distance. The aqueduct was built in several phases, starting from King Herod.
At the northern tip of the site of Caesarea, is an aqueduct (now partly buried in drift sand) which brought water from a spring 6km/4mi north of the town. There are two water conduits, and it can be seen at the broken south end that the right-hand channel was constructed first and the left-hand one added later.

Cache

The Cache is a black film canister and is hidden between stones in the old wall.
