It is shown that this construction technique was based on the experiences of the first builders, formed at the junction of ancient Egyptian, Mycenaean as well as Assyrian and Babylonian cultures.}, abstract={Arches in such bridges have not yet been constructed in a classical manner, i.e. one that was later prevalent by the Romans, but these were only the primitive arch-like structures, with a false needle vault, that were shaped mainly by corbelling. This type of the structure, if it was used in bridges, turned out to be much more stable than the well-known at that time and commonly used in gateway passages oval "true-arch" built from sun-dried mud bricks.}, type={artykuł}, title={Selected ancient stone bridges with corbelled false-arch structure = Wybrane starożytne mosty kamienne z łukami o konstrukcji opartej na łęku pozornym}, keywords={arch stone bridge, false arch, needle vaule, mud brick arch, corbelled arch, culvert, aqueduct, most kamienny łukowy, łuk fałszywy, sklepienie igłowe, łuk z cegły mułowej, łęk pozorny, przepust, akwedukt}, }
