A pit latrine, also known as pit toilet, is a type of toilet that collects human feces in a hole in the ground. Urine and feces enter the pit through a drop hole in the floor, which might be connected to a toilet seat or squatting pan for user comfort.Pit latrines can be built to function without water (dry toilet) or they can have a water seal (pour-flush pit latrine).
