Roman Bridges Through the Ages
England and Italy showcase ancient bridges in a general survey. Crowland in Lincolnshire preserves a dry river crossing’s odd triangular bridge while Rome’s Ponte Rotto stands as a centuries old remnant. The Pont du Gard in France emerges as the finest surviving three span aqueduct bridge with arches totaling 55. A Smyrna bridge in Asia Minor claims about 3000 years of age, while Sergovia in Spain hosts a longer still lower bridge.
