The Romans used something called an aqueduct to bring in water from lakes to their city. Aqueducts are tubes that go through mountains are elevated above valleys with a very slight angle downward then entire time. The downward slope ensures that the water will flow without the need for any sort of pump.
Wells and cisterns are alternatives to aqueducts.
For the same purpose as all the aqueducts that came before the Romans; to transport water from one location to another, typically for the purposes of irrigation. Contrary to belief, aqueducts are not a Roman invention (they were in use long before the Romans came along). But they did improve the technology with their superior construction skills using stone and Roman concrete (which is a Roman invention, but one that we no longer use today).
Aqueducts were built by pretty much all ancient civilisations.
