This Roman bridge that is still in use in Spain (the Roman province of Hispania Ulterior Baetica) crosses the Guadalquivir River. Its total length is 247 m; the span lengths are 9.5 - 10.8 m, and it has 16 spans. The bridge was made of stone, perhaps in the 1st century B.C. [Source: Roman Bridge in Cordoba.] It may have been made of wood first, possibly for Caesar, and then remade in stone. An Arab governor repaired the bridge in A.D. 719/20, but much Roman stonework remained. [Source: Spain: an Oxford archaeological guide By Roger Collins (1998 ]
