Abstract

[This work aims to provide a general overview of the water supply of the city of Seville from the Christian conquest in 1248 through to the nineteenth century. It focuses especially on the managing of the running water delivered by two aqueducts, one inherited from the Almohad caliphs and the second built in the sixteenth century. The institutional conflicts that took place between the king and the city government over water management represent another key line of study in conjunction with the means and structures for distributing water and the tensions that arose between this public good and private interests. ]
