dc.descriptionLocal Name: Derinci Dereen_US
dc.descriptionLocal Information: The remains of the substructure of the bridge are located on the west (right) bank of the Derince Dere, a tributary of the Morsynus river, while the terracotta pipeline is visible across the stream from it. Combined, they form the remains of a bridge situated 1.4 m north of Aphrodisias.en_US

dc.descriptionDescription: Preservation: The bridge substructure is severely damaged due to its location in active agricultural fields. The upper courses of the structure lie in a jumbled mass directly to the northeast. At least six segments of the terracotta pipeline are visible where erosion of the stream bank has caused the collapse of the trench in which they were laid, and several of these segments are pierced with jagged holes. ** Construction: The substructure is constructed of mortared rubble faced with petit appareil masonry of roughly worked field stones of widely varying sizes and materials. The terracotta pipeline was laid in a trench along the east (left) stream bank. ** Description: The substructure is 1.33 m wide and preserved to a height of 1.8 m and length of 40 m. It approaches the west (right) stream bank from the northwest but turns slightly to the east about 4 m from its eastern endpoint. The terracotta pipe segments are joined with white mortar and are each about 0.5 m in length and 0.15 m in diameter. The pipes have a smooth exterior surface but are gently ribbed inside, and two parallel grooves circumscribe the upstream end of each pipe segment.en_US
