Tankas are circular holes in the ground or underground water tanks where the rainwater is collected. These tanks were built inside the houses or courtyards and connected with pipes to the sloped roofs. The rainwater is collected in the tanks and used for drinking and consumption. This water could be stored for a year and is considered the purest water source.
