Abstract

This paper surveys the historical indigenous water-harvesting and water-supply systems in the Levant, focusing on Syrian lands, where they are numerous and well-preserved. It also deals with the important hydraulic works recently carried out to exploit the area in terms of agriculture to preserve, supply and collect water. Furthermore, the paper’s scope is to evaluate the feasibility of rehabilitating ancient hydraulic structures, either by maintaining the old systems or by implementing new projects.
Keywords: water-supply system; irrigation; drylands; hydraulics water-supply system; irrigation; drylands; hydraulics
