Koromysło - a wooden device that facilitates the transfer of loads to the shoulders; name borrowed from Ukrainian [1].
Mainly used on the farm where buckets of river water or wells are carried. It has the shape of an arch beam with a neckline on the shoulders. Two containers of similar weight are suspended from the hooks at both ends of the bracket, thanks to which the load on the beam is balanced. See less
