A short demonstration of two types of ancient pumps that might have been used in the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. For more information check: www.unmuseum.org/hangg.htm
Those designs widly used in agriculture the screw "Augar " for moving grains from combines,wagons,and feed bins. the chain bucket system used in grain elvators in the "leg" to move grain up to tubes feeding grain into storage bins
How it starts? There's nothing special with starting, it's the same as in continuous operation, someone or something has to power it e.g. by turning a crank on one of the wheels. It doesn't operate on its own, no pumps can do so.

I don't understand how the chain bucket works

This was done with Bryce.

And both of these pumps existed in Nubia, Ethiopia and Somalia ergo Sub-Saharan Africa before Europeans!
Do you have any source to study this further?
