The ancient Chinese obtained water from low irrigation ditches and canals up to their crops by using the chain pump. The chain pump made it easier to bring water from low land to higher land. Chinese workers used pedals to turn a wheel that pulled a series of wooden planks that brought their water uphill. This was created during the Han Dynasty, China's golden age.
