NONE of the contestants got Final Jeopardy! right.

WHAT IS THE TREVI FOUNTAIN?

Rome’s famous Trevi Fountain’s history goes back to the time of the Roman General Agrippa. He built the Aqua Virgo, the aqueduct that supplies water to the Trevi Fountain. When Rome’s fountains were being redesigned in the 18th century, Agrippa’s contribution was acknowledged with a bas-relief of him approving construction of the Aqua Virgo. The statue of the Titan god Oceanus represents the source of Earth’s fresh water. Learn more about these and other Trevi Fountain sculptures on the Roma Experience website.
