This famous primary battery used brine (solutions of table salt or sodium chloride in water) as the electrolyte and operated on the same galvanic principles as the Baghdad battery. In this case, zinc corroded (oxidised) as the anode under the influence of copper as the cathode.

Did ancient civilizations use water based batteries?

Archeologists believe that ancient civilisations, such as the Persian empire, may have mastered this type of water-based liquid battery and used it for electroplating thin metal coatings or for medical applications, such as the electric treatment of migraines and epilepsy.
