It is recorded that since Song Dynasty (960-1279), people invented Hu Dou made with bamboo and rattan. Hu Dou is the longest used original irrigation tool, like a scoop with ropes on the two sides, so can be pulled by two persons. If the difference between water levels is not very large, Hu Dou can be used in irrigation and drain.
