The ancient Egyptians had a sophisticated understanding of kitchen design. Their kitchens were often separate buildings located near the main house. While pot filler faucets were not used, they had a clever solution for filling pots with water. They would have a large basin or trough in the kitchen where water could be collected. This basin would be filled manually, and pots could be easily filled by dipping them into the water. This method allowed for efficient water usage and convenience in the kitchen.
