Cisterna

Cisterna

Underground tank used to collect rainwater.

Much of the island is not provided with aqueduct, so the main water supply comes from the sky! Obviously not only you rely on divine providence, but two desalination plants ensure the supply of water that by a very expansive transport services will fill the tank of the houses. Many tanks are still the oldest Punic tank (made out of tuff) while the newer ones are made out of reinforced concrete.
