Best Answer

It was called the Sakia and sometimes called the Persian wheel which is a water wheel, and used primarily in Egypt. It is a large hollow wheel, normally made of galvanized sheet steel, with scoops or buckets at the periphery. Its unique characteristic is that water is dispensed near the hub rather than from the top. It is a method of irrigation frequently met within various parts of India. We really can't know who was the first to make one but the Greeks have some of the oldest water wheels found.
