File:Shipot.jpg
Summary
A fountain or spring in the village of Dzyhivka (Дзи́гівка), Ukraine. This type of structure is normally called a dzherelo (джерело) in Ukrainian, though here it is called a shipit (шипіт - Ukrainian) or shipot (шипот - Russian), which would normally refer to a waterfall. This type of fountain is a clean water source in many villages in Ukraine, serving as an alternative to a well. It consists of a large metal pipe drilled into a hill horizontally. Clean, cold water runs constantly out of the pipe and creates a pool of water at the base, surrounded by stones, and runs out creating a small river.
