Είσοδος πετρόκτιστου λαουμιού Subject The topic of the resource Water supply--Cyprus--History Ύδρευση--Κύπρος--Ιστορία Description An account of the resource Government's water policy: During the period of Frankish and Venetian domination (1192-1489 A.D. and 1489-1571 A.D. respectively) the towns of Cyprus were surrounded by walls and well fortified. The conquerors of the island solved the problem of lack of potable water supplies with a systematic channelling and underground storage of rainwater. In order to eliminate loss of water during the delivery, earthen conveyors and masonry underground channels were used..Moreover, for water supply purposes, but mainly for irrigation, they exploited, modified and increased the systems of chain of wells, the so-called "Laoumia". When water did not reach the surface they used the "alakati", a turning wheel, which was turned around by an animal. This way, they were drawing water to the surface and irrigated their private farms, the "Timaria".
