Resumen
The aqueduct of the Canos de Carmona was in operation from 1172 until its demolition in 1912. Its infrastructure was an essential resource to supply water to the city of Seville. This study attempts to analyse the supply and distribution system used in the city in the Modern Age. The research is focused mainly on obtaining water from the Santa Lucia spring to 19 km in Alcala de Guadaira, its route through the aqueduct, the division for the distribution between different users in the general partition ark and its subsequent distribution to the final destinations. This study aims to develop a hypothesis about the principles of water distribution through the city and to estimate the percentage of water going to each client based on the theoretical concession that should reach each home.
