- W4310796610 abstract "This contribution focuses on rainwater harvesting facilities in the recent past in a traditional community on the Methana peninsula in the Peloponnese. Discussion of the basic requirements of rainwater harvesting systems, including water collection and filtration features, precedes an outline of the ethnographic situation. Some of the main elements of the system as described were dependent on industrial materials unavailable before the later 19th or 20th centuries. Possibly because of the requirements of skill, time and materials, cisterns were the first secular structures in the 19th century to be monumentalized with dates and personal initials. The subsequent discussion of the hygiene levels of rainwater harvested with traditional technologies incorporates a range of studies from around the world alongside practices used on Methana for collecting and filtering rainwater. The conclusion is that rainwater harvested in cisterns generally has higher levels of biological and other contaminants than is expected in the piped water of Western nations. Nevertheless, if the kinds of collection and filtration practices described on Methana are employed, cistern water can be considered safe to drink, and it generally contains significantly fewer microbial contaminants than water from streams, rivers and wells, which are the only water supply of many communities around the world." @default.
