A shaduf is not a pulley, but it does operate on similar principles of leverage. A shaduf is a hand-operated device used to lift water, consisting of a long beam balanced on a vertical post, with a bucket attached to one end and a counterweight on the other. While both systems use mechanical advantage to move loads, a pulley specifically involves a wheel and a rope or cable, whereas a shaduf relies on a beam and pivot.
