Answer:  

Step wells are water storage wells in which water can be reached by climbing down a series of steps, since they are built with large number of steps they are named as step wells.

Explanation:  

The step wells are storage and irrigation tanks that are widely seen in western India to balance the seasonal water demand that arises in the locality. They are similar structures to the step ponds that are built for a similar purpose.
