The Harappan civilization, known for its advanced urban planning, had sophisticated plumbing systems that included drainage, sewage disposal, and water supply. Their use of baked brick for pipes and sophisticated drainage systems allowed for effective waste management and sanitation, which was crucial for public health. This level of engineering not only demonstrated their technological prowess but also contributed to the overall organization and cleanliness of their cities, setting a benchmark for future civilizations. The emphasis on hygiene and infrastructure highlights the importance they placed on community well-being and urban living standards.
John snow, he cured it by looking at the sewage and the river Thames and the sewage was found to leak through into the water supply this is how the epademic started.
It filters raw sewerage from entering the domestic potable water supply
Floodwaters allow sewage to mix with drinking water.

Sewage is a term for the waste of people and animals. Normally, sewage is sent off to a treatment plant, and kept entirely separate from drinking water. If sewage was to enter the water supply, it would make people extremely sick.

Yes, Mohenjo-Daro, an ancient city of the Indus Valley Civilization, had a sophisticated water supply system, including wells. These wells were integral to the city's urban planning, providing access to fresh water for its inhabitants. The presence of these wells, along with advanced drainage systems, highlights the impressive engineering and sanitation practices of the civilization.
