Amphitheatre in Pula; Water Supply System
Attilio Krizmanić
Abstract
This article deals with the water supply system of the Amphitheatre in Pula. Virtual reconstruction of the internal water distribution network is impossible since no trace has remained of the internal walls or of the building complex with the pipeline. The only surviving points of the water supply network that provide water both for the city and for the Amphitheatre are water towers (Castellum aquae) at the top of the Castrum and a permanent live water spring called Nimfej (Nymphaeum, nowadays Karolina) half way between the city walls and the Amphitheatre.
