Water Pump:

Imagine not even having a running water in your house. This house had a pump and they were lucky to have had it inside their house and not in the backyard. This pump would have been used to get water for everything; cooking, cleaning, washing clothes, just like we use our sinks today. However, unlike many of us they would only have a pump in one room in their house. Another thing to consider would be the quality of the water. Considering how much care goes in to purifying drinking water today. It is scary to think about this not being done.
