"<u>Aquaeductus</u>", <em><u>which is the result of the sum of two components</u></em>:

-<em><u>The noun</u></em> "<u>aqua</u>", <em><u>which is synonymous with</u></em> "<u>water</u>".

- <u>"Duct"</u>, <em><u>which derives from the verb</u></em> "<u><em>ducere</em></u>", <em><u>which is equivalent to</u></em> <u>"guide"</u>.

<u>Therefore, an aqueduct is a channel artificially constructed to carry water to a specific site</u>.
