Hoe zuiverde ze vroeger water?
Zo’n 7.000 jaar geleden begonnen ze met het graven van waterputten, waarvan ze de wanden bekleedden met bamboetwijgen. Daarnaast lieten de farao’s regelmatig irrigatiekanalen aanleggen. Hiermee werd het water van de Nijl afgevoerd om woestijngebieden van water te voorzien en geschikt voor landbouw te maken.
Hoe werd water vroeger gebruikt?
Ze gebruikten rivier-, bron- of grondwater voor hun bevoorrading. De Romeinen bouwden dammen in rivieren, waardoor meren ontstonden. Het water werd hierin eerst belucht voordat het werd afgenomen. Men gebruikte het liefst water uit de bergen, vanwege de drinkbaarheid.
