In ancient Rome, kitchens were an integral part of the household. They were typically small and simple, with a focus on functionality. While pot filler faucets as we know them today did not exist, Romans had a similar concept. They used a system of water channels called aqueducts to bring water into their homes. In the kitchen, they would have a designated area where pots could be filled with water from these channels. This allowed for easy access to water for cooking and cleaning.
