People of the time may have known that water from rivers could not be trusted, but springs and wells were used commonly. London had an large number of wells and springs for public use in the Middle Ages, and both wells were dug throughout the time for manor houses. The artesian well, invented in 1126 by monks in Artois, France, was an improvement in which a hollow iron rod was driven into the ground until water was hit that had sufficient pressure to come to the surface on its own. Castles and other structures had cisterns that were kept full with rain water.

What was the era before the dark ages?
The Renaissance time period came after the Dark Ages. ----- It seems most people who use the term Dark Ages are talking about the Early Middle Ages, which is a period from about 450 AD to 1000 AD. They call the following period the Middle Ages. Some people would have the Dark Ages coincide with the Age of Migration, from about 300 to 700, and this would mean it was followed by the second half of the Early Middle Ages, which began with a time called the Carolingian Renaissance. Other people would have the Dark Ages be equal to the entire Middle Ages, so it would be followed by the European Renaissance. I think most historians do not use the term Dark Ages.
