But, in 1623, a letter determined that the taxes would be used to assist overseas Indian territories.[2] In 1728, construction began on a new aqueduct that devastated part of the Roman in the area of "crags" because the dam was seen as unnecessary, given the abundance of possible sources of capture in the basin.[2] The smaller buildings erected there, the ventilators are still maintained by the Companhia das Águas de Lisboa.[2] The construction of the Caneças-Lisbon roadway resulted in the destruction and burial of another wall of the dam.[2] ArchitectureThe remnants of the dam are located in a rural place, implanted alongside and below the roadway, along the Carenque River, partially covered by forest and medium vegetation, situated {{convert|10|km|ft}} from the city centre.[2] The ancient ruins of the dam are survived by a central segment some {{convert|15.5|m|ft}} long, {{convert|8|m|ft}} tall and {{convert|7|m|ft}} wide, and reinforced by three buttresses.[2] It extends in the local occupied by roadway and the other end to the lateral of the valley, where a great part of the wall was destroyed.[2] The reservoir created by the dam warehoused approximately {{convert|125|m3|ft3}} of water.[2] The channel from the structure extends {{convert|1300|m|ft}} and is visible as it still intersects the more modern Águas Livres Aqueduct that was built over the old structures.[2] See also
