Roman Pools were Better than Yours

They just don't make them like they used to. This is the deluxe edition obviously, found in present day Turkey. Apparently a farmer was tilling along and hit this with his plow. A whole pool. With nearly perfect intact intricately laid tile work.

The Romans were the masters of a number of things, the most important being engineering. Just look at all the present day highways laid over existing Roman roads - some cities even still get their water via ancient aqueducts.

When I was looking to post this article, I actually came across a reference to it on History.com. Which apparently is owned by the History Channel. Imagine my surprise to find actual history there - and not ancient aliens who build pools on the ice while trading in the pawned logs.
