碳酸盐矿床为古代社会最早的水电工业利用提供了洞察力。公元2世纪位于法国巴比加尔的罗马水磨坊被认为是人类历史上最早的工业建筑群之一。由于所有的木制品都腐烂了，这16个水车已经不复存在。然而，在磨坊运行期间，从水中沉淀出碳酸盐沉积物，在木制品上形成铸件。这些铸模被保存在碎片中，为磨坊的使用和维护提供了独特的见解，甚至提供了对水轮室结构的独特见解。碳酸盐沉积的稳定同位素时间序列表明，磨矿活动有规律地中断了几个月。这有力地表明，磨坊并没有像之前认为的那样，用于向一个主要的人口中心稳定地供应面粉，而是很可能用于为附近的港口生产不容易腐烂的硬面食。
Carbonate deposits provide insights into the operation of the earliest industrial utilization of hydropower by an ancient society. The second century CE Roman watermill complex of Barbegal, France, is regarded as one of the first industrial complexes in human history. The 16 water wheels are no longer extant as all woodwork has decayed. However, carbonate deposits precipitated from water during operation of the mills forming casts on the woodwork. These casts are preserved in fragments and provide unique insights into the frequency of use and maintenance of the mills, and even into the structure of the water wheel chambers. Stable isotope time series of carbonate deposits reveal that the mill activity was regularly interrupted for several months. This strongly suggests that the mill complex was not used for a steady supply of flour to a major population center, as previously thought, but likely served to produce nonperishable hardtack for the nearby harbors.
