Question

why was the well dug​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Historically, a dug well was excavated below the groundwater table until incoming water exceeded the digger's bailing rate. The well was then lined (cased) with stones, brick, tile, or other material to prevent collapse. ... Since it is so difficult to dig beneath the ground water table, dug wells are not very deep.
