This rural contraption its obvially used to extract water from a well, it is a very ancient contrapction wich was inicially invented by the arabes (currently north africa muslims). The first time it was used in europe was in the iberian peninsula (now spain and portugal) about the IV to V century B.C. Its name in my country its a "Nora", and in some remote regions it is still used (with an electric or fuel engine) to extract water from wells. Have a nice week end.
