The Trevi fountains are at the end of the Aqua Virgo, an aqueduct that brings water from the Salone Springs, 20km from Rome.
 

Neptune, god of the sea, is shown riding a chariot in the shape of a shell, pulled by two sea horses, each guided by a Triton. One of the horses is calm and obedient, the other one restive, symbolizing the fluctuating moods of the sea.
