Cambodian Irrigation

Water wheel, called the Noria, in Cambodia. Noria were build by the Romans as early as 1 BC, in northern Africa, along fast moving rivers, accompanied with aqueducts to provide water for crop irrigation. The buckets around its circumference are filled by the river's water and turned round by its current. When they reach the top, the water is carried away on an aqueduct
