The building, indicated by popular belief as the "house of Pontius Pilate", has inside a well connecting to a qanat, that is, an underground hydraulic system, with characteristics completely analogous to a water supply system that brings water from a spring from Etam to Jerusalem. Therefore, if we want to identify a historical basis for the legend, we can hypothesize that, after his dismissal, having returned to his Bisenti, Pontius Pilate, waiting to receive instructions from the Roman authorities regarding his future, still politically influential and "connected", before being sent into exile, had time to build an aqueduct very similar to the water infrastructure that a few years before he had built in Jerusalem, making sure that the main tunnel, before reaching the supply source in a public fountain, passed through his "domus" so as to draw water directly from the house.
