Machinery noria and naurah of Na‘urah Na‘urahs
  Machinery can be traced from its early invention by the Greeks to its current elaboration in our modern industrial age. Around the third century B.C. Archimedes discovered the principle of the lever, the pulley and the screw and demonstrated them successfully. Another Greek mechanical genius, Hero, developed the gear and the crank and-more important-summed up all the mechanical knowledge of his day in a three volume treatise, Mechanics.   Nothing of importance was lacking for the creation of a machine age except the will to produce it. But this inclination was totally lacking in the Greeks. Slavery was prevalent and the ancient world felt no need for labor-saving devices. Furthermore, the Greek mentality was dedicated to theory and disdained the practical application of science.    When the Arabs in 641 conquered Egypt and took possession of Alexandria, they fell heir to what remained of Greek creativity. Its influence upon them grew as their own capacity evolved. They made translations of Hero's Mechanics  and applied its principles to two important inventions,  the water-mill and the windmill.   The water-mill was an improvement over the Roman water-wheel, and was employed extensively to irrigate regions of Spain and North Africa. Its success there led to its adoption in medieval Europe, where it was known by the  Latin name noria, derived from the Arabic,  naurah.       The windmill, as far as can be ascertained, actually originated with the Moslems. The first wind-mill known to history was built around 640 A.D. by order of the Caliph Omar.  A few centuries later an Arab geographer reported that the windmill was used widely in Persia to pump water for irrigation.   From Persia and Afghanistan the windmill spread throughout the Islamic world.  It ground wheat, crushed sugar-cane and pumped water. Later it came into use in Europe by way of Morocco and Spain. Leonardo da Vinci somehow came into possession of Hero's books and set about to improve the ancient Greek inventions. In this he was followed by other Italians, notably Ramelli. By 1600 the science of mechanics was well established in Europe.

al-Na‘urah al-Muhammadiyah is one of a number of famous Na‘urahs (pl. Nawa‘ir) that have been present in northern Syria for centuries. Mention of them first appeared in Vitruvius’, De Architectura, Book 10, Ch. 5.;1 however, more frequent mention of them occur within Islamic texts, due to their extensive use within the Islamicate world. The al-Muhammadiyah dates back to the 14th century. Na‘urahs were present from Islamic Spain (al-Andalus) to Iran and were used to irrigate lands or supply drinking water via aqueducts to towns and cities. The Na‘urahs of Hamah, Syria, of which the al-Muhammadiyah is one, are very famous till today in the region. They are popular among tourists, as well as to the many old and new emigrants who return home.

http://www.saudiaramcoworld.com/issue/198001/windmills-from.jiddah.to.yorkshire.htm

During the Middle Ages improvements in gearing, and the development of watermills with a horizontal shaft and a vertical wheel, led to an increased power output. These improvements were applied to the windmills when they were introduced to the West and gave them their characteristic form. In the Middle East, windmills were used more extensively than watermills. Although tidal mills were used in Basra, at the head of the Arabian Gulf, there were few fast-running streams elsewhere that would make the construction of watermills practical. Windmills were used, for example, in today's Iraq, as part of the elaborate irrigation systems in that area, and in Egypt, for crushing sugar cane on a large scale. It was from Egypt, in fact, that the Spanish, in the early 16th century, recruited technicians to build windmills in the West Indies.

 

Today, windmills are not found in the Middle East, except in Iran and Afghanistan. The Mongol conquests of the 13th century destroyed the irrigation systems, and with the decline of the sugar industry in Egypt they fell out of use there as well. The availability of cheap fuels has done the rest, and even in Iran and Afghanistan, today the old windmills have for the most part fallen to ruins.

 

Fortunately, the principle of the windmill had been brought to Spain and Portugal by the Arabs before the Mongol invasions, and this principle, combined with the technical advances which had previously been made in watermill construction, gave Europe an inexpensive and efficient source of power. The windmills tilted at by Don Quixote, like so much in Spanish culture, had an Arab ancestry.

 

It is ironic, therefore, that when Karl Twitchell set up his windmill in Jiddah, in the western region of Saudi Arabia, in the 1937's, he was unwittingly bringing the windmill full circle.

sakieh - Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48 :

  Sakieh \Sak"i*eh\, Sakiyeh \Sak"i*yeh\, n.] [Ar. s[=a]q[imac]ah
     canal, trench.]
     A kind of water wheel used in Egypt for raising water, from
     wells or pits, in buckets attached to its periphery or to an
     endless rope.
     [Webster 1913 Suppl.]

Old Water Wheels
Among the mechanical methods to draw water from the (Nile) river, Egyptians used from of old a system called the sakieh which consisted of great, squeaky cogg wheels turned by a buffalo in his worn, circular path underneath a shed whose water wheel had cups around its circumference to pour water into a trough or pipe.
Another method was the very common shadoof consisting of a long pivoting pole with a counter weight at its handling end and a chain on its tip attached to a bucket.
A photo of large water wheels from the Euphrates area at `Hit' can be seen in Splendors of the Past, p. 57.

Sakiyeh, A kind of water wheel used in Egypt for raising water, from wells or pits, in buckets attached to its periphery or to an endless rope.
 

6.2 Sakieh

La "Sakieh" ou système d'élévation de l'eau par traction animale a été utilisée depuis 1995, lorsque le Ministère de l'Irrigation convertit toute la région du Delta au niveau inférieur actuel, en recreusant les canaux et abaissant le niveau de l'eau. La politique adoptée reposait sur l'hypothèse selon laquelle il serait possible d'éviter une sur-irrigation et un gaspillage de l'eau si les agriculteurs étaient obligés de pomper l'eau dans le micro-système ou dans la mesqa. Les grands propriétaires fonciers investirent dans des sakieh privées mais les petits agriculteurs furent obligés de passer de l'irrigation simple, basée sur la gravité et le tambour (vis d'Archimède) à un système de pompage de l'eau, la sakieh appartenant à un groupe et étant exploitée par ce dernier. L'organisation en anneau de la sakieh rassemble, habituellement de 8 à 12 familles voisines de la mesqa. L'eau est allouée selon un système de rotation établi selon la superficie cultivée par chaque membre du groupe. Ces derniers achètent des parts de la sakieh utilisée pour une superficie donnée devant être irriguée, les réparations, la maintenance de la sakieh et l'allocation de l'eau se faisant aussi par rotation. La superficie occupée par la sakieh fait soit l'objet d'un don soit est achetée collectivement par les membres. Le chef de la sakieh est responsable de la collecte de l'argent nécessaire aux réparations et aux pièces de rechange, du règlement des litiges et de la maintenance régulière de la sakieh et des mesqas.

With the close connections he had with the colonial administration, import of machinery and technology needed for the sugar industry was not difficult. The milling machinery was imported from Birmingham in England and the factory was sited at Nagoda where the present Police Station stands. This was popularly known as "Dum Mola" (steam mill) Sugarcane from the neighbouring villages were transported to the site in bullock carts and boats. The landing point in the Gin Ganga was a place called Dessowita where the ruins of the facilities provided were seen until recently.

Giling

Grind. Most Malaysian cooking start with grinding basic ingredients, or spices. This is done by hand using a stone Mortar & Pestle [Batu Lesung] or a Grindstone [Batu Giling].

Electric food processors and blenders have now eliminated this painstaking chore. However, many Malaysian kitchen still use a stone mortar & pestle for small tasks, such as grinding onions, garlic or some fresh chilies.

Google: "find a chinese character" unicode

http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node=radical

From Latin radix (root), in Chinese script, a radical is a root character, i.e., one of 214 basic characters from which all other Chinese characters are derived.

For example, to find a Chinese character in Mathews' Chinese-English Dictionary (and probably other Chinese dictionaries), you first need to identify its radical, then find the character in the radical index, which will give you the character number (these numbers are specific to the dictionary. Then you can find the character inside the dictionary and read both its pronunciation and definition.

This is sometimes very easy, at other times very frustrating, especially when the character seems to be derived from more than one radical or when the shape of the radical is changed within the character (this is often the case because each character is drawn in the same size as any other character, hence the radical is often drawn "compressed").
