Restanca d'Assoan

La restanca d'Assoan es lo nom balhat a doas restancas del flume de Nil existentas a la broa de la vila d'Assoan (Aswan), en Egipte, e que pòrtan ambedoas aqueste nom.

La primièra, coneguda coma la « restanca vièlha » o « restanca bassa » d'Assoan, foguèt bastida pels britanics entre 1898 e 1902, e serà acabada en 1907. Serviguèt per emmagazinar una quantitat d'aiga considerabla per l'irrigacion. En general los lòcs amb rèstas arqueologicas foguèron practicament pas tocats.

La segonda dicha « restanca nauta » foguèt prevista en 1952, exactament après lo còp d'Estat de Nasser e, al començament, èra previst que los Estats Units ajudarián a finançar la bastison mas aquò capitèt pas e en 1956 lo govèrn egipcian prepausèt de contunhar lo projècte en solitari. Fin finala lo poguèt realizar amb l'ajuda de l'Union Sovietica alara en plena Guèrra Freja.

La paissièra foguèt en aquel temps una granda òbra d'engenhariá; calguèt 18 còps mai de material que çò utilizat per la piramida de Kheops. La restanca fa 4 km de long, 1 km de larg a la basa e 125 m de naut. Quand foncionèt a plen rendement pel primièr còp, produguèt a l'entorn de la mitat de l'energia del país e 15% del total l'an 1998, en mai de portar l'electricitat a de zonas aluenhadas que fins alara n'avián pas.

L'estancada de l'aiga creèt un lac artificial que recebèt lo nom de Lac Nasser, en onor del president Nasser, principal impulsor de l'infrastructura.

Well, you should come here to see the tall obelisk as well as the Naser lake and the temple of Kalabsha, which is shown from the dam.
