Description
Patras, Little Perimeter Road, Medieval aqueduct. A. Koumousi (6th EBA) reports the discovery during construction of this road, of the previously unknown post-Byzantine aqueduct of the city. This section of the aqueduct (40m long, 4.15m high 1.60m wide) consists of four arches running east-west, and bridges the Aroe Valley. The aqueduct has sloping rectangular walls reinforced with buttresses on both sides. The construction is consistent with buildings of the Ottoman period in this region, and was most likely constructed after the Ottoman conquest of Patras in 1458.
