Connection between

Aqueduct has a strong connection with the theme of transportation. They are used for water transportation, as well as boats and ships.

The definition of transportation is to have something displaced in 3 dimensional space. Aqueducts were invented by the Romans to displace water from the source to a city. It is a way to supply fresh water for the urban settlements.

Another instant, gravity pulls the water in vertical displacement, transporting water from the higher mountains to ground level civilization. Engineers use primarily pipes and Auqueduct Bridge to transport water.

Transportation serves human good, and aqueducts supply natural resources to urban settlements, which allow many urban growth opportunity.

Large navigable aqueducts can also be used to transport boats and ships from a location to another.
