3. The importance of water for arising
settlement
Most cities were often founded near
rivers, lakes and brooks so that people
would have closer distance to drinking
water and didn't have to import it from
elsewhere. People use water for
irrigating fields or for some crafts.
Then people started made artificial
basins= ponds. Artificial basins serve as
reservoirs of water or for breeding of
fish. The biggest pond in the Czech
Republic is Rožmberk, which is in
Třeboň. On Rožmberk we can see the
curvature of earth.
