La ciudad de Pompeya contaba con 40 fuentes públicas repartidas por toda la ciudad, esta es una de ellas, en Via dell’Abbondanza, 29, 80045 Pompei NA, Italia.

Las fuentes constaban de un estanque frontal alimentado por un depósito trasero a través de una tubería ; el tamaño de las cuencas osciló entre 1 y 7 m 3 . Los embalses se abastecían tanto de agua de lluvia como del acueducto público.

En sus primeros siglos como ciudad, Pompeya obtenía la mayor parte de su agua de cisternas subterráneas , que se alimentaban del agua de lluvia recogida de los tejados.

The fountains consisted of a front pool fed by a rear reservoir via a pipe; the size of the basins ranged from 1 to 7 m 3 . The reservoirs were supplied with both rainwater and the public aqueduct.

In its first centuries as a city, Pompeii obtained most of its water from underground cisterns, which were fed by rainwater collected from rooftops.
