The paper presents the first issues of a new study about cisterns of Solunto, carthaginese city situated in Sicily, and water management of the town during the graeco-roman period. It shows the ways of collecting and managing water, particularly in what concerns raining water. XIXth et XXth century excavations have discovered many hydraulic structures, generally cisterns (70 for the moment with a capacity between 10 and 30 m3) and channels or architectonic elements which have never been studied. We begin with a general presentation and continue with some peculiar structures of the Solunto environment.
