During the ancient Roman period of Turazhen the Great (AD 53-117), in order to introduce the water of the Frio River 18 kilometers away into the city of Segolia, the canal was dug and aqueducts were built to attract water into the city.

The aqueduct is 813 meters long and 128 towering columns support double-layered 148 arches. The top of the sink is a canal, more than 30 meters above the ground. The initial section standard 30X30cm was repaired at the end of the 15th century and was converted into a cement tank around 1930, and has been maintained and used since then.
