This is a section of the aqueduct built by Trajan in 109 AD. In a study carried out by the Speleo Club of Rome published in 1999, it emerges that the true sources of the Trajan Aqueduct are identified in the Acqua Praecilia area, located near Manziana.

The initial flow of water is enriched along the way by other sources, identified during a careful study of the aqueduct itself. The site in question has a broken basin at one point from which a certain quantity of water escapes and flows into a collection pond.
