Sažetak
The water related problems were managed effectively and responsibly ever since prehistoric times. Basic fact are presented in the text. Traditionally, knowledge of how to manage water resources incorporates innovation in a dynamic fashion, subject to longterm testing, and thus achieving local and environmental sustainability. By studying the conditions and processes that influenced the development of ancient water systems as well as their operation and management, it is possible to gain knowledge for future technological advances. The knowledge and principles on which ancient water systems were planned and managed can help us better define strategies, adaptation measures and strengthen resilience related to climate change and variability.
