The Roman Mill at Barbegal- Professor Kevin Butcher

The astonishing water mill complex at Barbegal in Provence used to be considered a product of late antiquity, but the discovery of a coin of Trajan (AD 98-117) embedded in the plaster of the aqueduct has led to a reconsideration of the place of hydraulic technology in the earlier Roman empire.
An occasional series of short videos on coins that shed light on various aspects of ancient history, presented by Professor Kevin Butcher.

Well told Prof Kevin- and it is a superb place to see the simple beauty of the country and intrigue of the ruins, yes, astonishing.

The second aqueduct may not have transported potable water since it was just for hydro power?
