Upside-down! LOL
Seriously: They were dug down, level by level, shoring up the walls with wood. When the water began to seep in they stopped digging and began building the walls up from the bottom, removing wooden shoring as they built upwards.
It was usual to build wells in the dry season, or at least when rain was not expected.

Brick water wells were typically constructed by first digging a hole in the ground. The bricks were then stacked on top of each other to form the walls of the well, leaving space between them for water to flow through. A cap or cover was often placed on top to prevent contaminants from entering the well.
Wells in ancient times were primarily used as a reliable water source for drinking, irrigation, and domestic use. They also played a crucial role in sustaining communities and enabling agricultural activities in areas where surface water was scarce. Additionally, wells often had symbolic and ritualistic significance in various cultures.
Most of the houses or buildings in Pompeii were made of stone
The Sumerians built their cities at Ur and Akkad and constructed ziggurats. These ancient Mesopotamian people developed complex societies in the region known as Sumer, with cities like Ur and Akkad serving as important cultural and political centers. Ziggurats were massive stepped structures made of mud-brick that served as temples and administrative centers in Sumerian cities.
An ancient Scottish or Irish fortified settlement constructed on an artificial island is called a crannog. These wooden structures were built in bodies of water for defense and have been dated back to the Bronze Age.
Buildings were typically constructed using locally available materials such as mud, stone, wood, or brick. Village layouts were often determined by factors like terrain, natural resources, and the need for defense. Residential structures were clustered together, often with shared spaces for social activities or communal gatherings.
bricks are a special type of scientific object created from wierd stuff like u
You hire a contractor that builds brick wells.
Stone, brick, concrete and metal.
The Roman Colosseum was constructed out of brick, concrete, and stone.
The houses were built with mud brick.
no they did not have water wells but they did have gold wells
Wells get water from the underground water table.
You put water wells where there is shortage of water. For example India has loads of villages with Wells.
it erodes the brick leaving small holes in the brick how does water cause weathering of a brick?
Very early wells were simply holes dug in the ground deep enough to get to the water below. As time went forward people figured out that if they dug below the top of the water table and lined the inside with rocks, the dirt would settle to the bottom and they could dip into the clear water at the top without the dirt.
None. It is not a brick wall. It was constructed of stone and turf.
Aqueducts were constructed to run water from the hills to cities. Some are still in existence. Clay water jugs were used to carry water from the wells or cisterns to houses.
