Ancient Technology

The Archimedes screw, a device created by the famous ancient Greek mathematician and engineer Archimedes, is a simple machine consisting of a long helical screw placed inside a tube or pipe.



Even though Archimedes is credited with popularizing the mechanism, the technology was most probably also used by Egyptians long before his Eureka moment.

When the screw is turned, it lifts the material inside the tube upward. The Archimedes screw is an effective and efficient way to move water or other materials from a lower to a higher elevation.

And guess what?

It is still commonly used in irrigation systems, water treatment plants, and sewage treatment facilities due to its simplicity and attractive design. This makes it one of the most timeless and effective pieces of ancient technology still being used today.

This technical drawing depicts an Archimedes screw. The device, resembling a screw inside a tube, is illustrated on parchment in a vintage style.
