The Water Carriers sold water from door to door. They organized themselves into companies.
Each company was composed by thirty-three water carriers.
The fountains had a foreman for each company, to supervise the water carriers on site, to help avoiding offenses and impose the order.
In this site, we can find the statue and several tile panels with images of water carriers in labor.
