| notes: | Hypothetical aqueduct inverted siphon of lead pipes between Arles and the suburb of Trinquetaille. The water pipes may have fallen off a ship. If the siphon is real, it could have supplied Trinquetaille with water fro the Alpilles, or in the other direction, supplied Arles with water from Bellegarde |
