EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in Ethiopian history as a postman, mounted on horseback, delivers a message to a tribal leader outside his tent. Circa 1900, this image offers a glimpse into the past when communications were more rudimentary and the mail was delivered by horseback riders. The Ethiopian postal system, which predates the Italian occupation in 1936, was an essential means of communication across the vast and diverse landscape of the Ethiopian Empire. The tribal leader, dressed in traditional attire, sits cross-legged before his tent, surrounded by his retinue. He listens intently as the postman reads the message aloud, his expression a mix of curiosity and concern. The postman, dressed in the uniform of the Ethiopian postal service, holds the rolled-up message in one hand and reins the horse with the other. The horse, its coat glistening in the sunlight, stands calmly, adding to the serene atmosphere of the scene. The photograph's composition, with the leader and his tent in the foreground and the vast, open landscape stretching out behind, emphasizes the isolation and ruggedness of the terrain. The use of natural light and the muted colors of the image add to its historical authenticity, transporting us back in time to a simpler era when the delivery of a message was a significant event. This photograph is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the Ethiopian people and their ability to adapt to the challenges of their environment. It also highlights the importance of communication in maintaining the social and political fabric of a community, even in the most remote and inaccessible areas. Overall, this image is a powerful reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of Ethiopia.
