算盘

a tool used for counting and calculating that consists of a frame with rods or wires on which beads or stones are moved up and down using hands

What is an "abacus"?

An abacus is a simple, ancient tool used for performing arithmetic calculations. It originated in Mesopotamia around 2300 BCE and was later adopted by many other cultures, including the Chinese, Egyptians, and Romans. The abacus consists of a frame with rods or wires, each holding a series of beads that can be moved back and forth. Each bead represents a specific value, and by moving the beads in different patterns, users can add, subtract, multiply, and divide numbers. The abacus was widely used before the invention of more modern calculating devices and is still used in some places today, especially for teaching basic math or in areas where electronic devices are not available.

What is an "aqueduct"?

An aqueduct is a structure designed to transport water from one location to another, usually over long distances. It often consists of a series of channels or pipes, sometimes elevated on arches or bridges, to carry water across valleys or obstacles. Aqueducts are commonly used in agriculture, urban areas, and for irrigation, ensuring a reliable water supply. They can be made from various materials, including stone, concrete, or metal, and are important for delivering water to communities and supporting agricultural activities.
