	Fountain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Early fountains depended on the natural gravity flow of water, from a spring or from an aqueduct supplied from a distant and higher source of water, which provided hydraulic head.
		In many circumstances fountains obtain their water from a closed, recirculating system that must still be filled at the start from the local water supply system and also topped up through its life to offset the effects of evaporation.

		Since 1871 Cincinnatians have viewed the Tyler Davidson Fountain, in its present location at Fountain Square and in its previous incarnation a block away at Government Square, as a symbol of Cincinnati.
		In 1860, Tyler Davidson and Henry Probasco first discussed the idea of presenting to the people of Cincinnati a fountain - an object of beauty and utility to the city where the brothers-in-law, partners and close friends made their fortune in the hardware business.
		Along with the artistic presence and casting skills of Ferdinand von Miller and his two sons, Ferdinand and Fritz, the fountain was cast in 24 tons of canon bronze purchased from the Danish government.

		A '''fountain''' is an arrangement where water is forced into the air under pressure, creating a jet; or is allowed to flow over a surface, possibly stone or metal.
		Animated fountains often use laminar jets that provide water that moves like ping pong balls in animation, so that it breaks up, as the height varies, and the behaviour of each jet operates independently with up to 5Hz modulation frequency 1/5sec, so that the water packets collide with themselves.
		There is a mythological Fountain of Youth from which one can drink to gain immortality, or to regain their youth that plays a role in many fairy tales, stories, and oddysseys.

		On his view, the fountain of youth is an object that instantiates both the property of being a fountain and that of having waters which confer everlasting life.
