| Zusammenfassung: | Charles Ortloff provides a new perspective on archaeological studies of the urban and agricultural water supply and distribution systems of the major ancient civilizations of South America, the Middle East, and South-East Asia, by using modern computer analysis methods to extract the true hydraulic/hydrological knowledge base available to these peoples. His many new revelations about the capabilities and innovations of ancient water engineers force us to re-evaluate what was knownand practised in the hydraulic sciences in ancient times.

Water engineering in the ancient world : archaeological and climate perspectives on societies of ancient South America, the Middle East, and South-East Asia / Charles R. Ortloff. Oxford ; New York : Oxford University Press, 2009. 1 online resource (viii, 424 pages) : illustrations, maps text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Ancient pre-Columbian Peru, Bolivia and Mesoamerica -- The ancient Middle East -- Ancient South-East Asia -- Hydraulic engineering and water management strategies of ancient societies -- Environmental and climate perspectives on New World, Old World, and South-East Asian societies' achievements in the hydraulic sciences. Charles Ortloff provides a new perspective on archaeological studies of the urban and agricultural water supply and distribution systems of the major ancient civilizations of South America, the Middle East, and South-East Asia, by using modern computer analysis methods to extract the true hydraulic/hydrological knowledge base available to these peoples. His many new revelations about the capabilities and innovations of ancient water engineers force us to re-evaluate what was knownand practised in the hydraulic sciences in ancient times.
