In 2011, researcher and artist Lee Krystek produced this artistic impression, based on all the available records and descriptions he had available, showing at least a part of the 16-arch stone viaduct described in some detail by a number of visitors.

The instant I saw it, I recognised the significance of the viaduct, as clearly an aqueduct, designed to deliver fresh water to the nearby city, known to have been built on a site that had no reliable source of fresh water.

To a person researching the possible uses of Nature’s atmospheric vortexes, the answer to the question of how could the Pharos  lighthouse produce fresh water, was entirely obvious.

By good fortune, a relatively brief search online produced two images that, by their wealth of unique detail, revealed themselves to be engineer’s drawing contemporary with the Pharos’ construction.
