Another slight silver lining to the dark cloud of climate change: drought in Spain has lowered this reservoir to reveal the pristine foundations of a Roman fort.
"Aquis Querquennis" as it was known, was built under reign of Emperor Vespasian, circa AD 75, and housed the troops who were tasked with constructing the nearby "Via Nova" (new road).
