EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Lady Water Carriers, Port Said Egypt," transports us back in time to the vibrant and bustling North African port city in 1904. The image, captured by an unidentified photographer, showcases a group of young Egyptian girls engaged in their daily routine of carrying and selling water from amphorae and jars. The girls, dressed in traditional Egyptian attire, are seen playing and laughing as they balance the heavy pots on their heads. One girl in the foreground is seen taking a break, drinking from a small cup, while another plays a flute, adding a melodic backdrop to the scene. The girls' expressions are full of joy and resilience, reflecting the spirit of the community. Port Said, located at the northernmost point of the Suez Canal, was a major hub for trade and commerce in the early 20th century. The city was a melting pot of cultures, with people from all over the world passing through. The image of the lady water carriers is a testament to the rich history and diversity of this fascinating place. The photograph also highlights the importance of water in the daily lives of the people of Port Said. Despite the harsh desert climate, the community relied on the water brought in by the carriers to sustain their homes and businesses. The amphorae and jars, reminiscent of ancient Egyptian art, add to the historical significance of the image. This photograph is a precious reminder of a bygone era and offers a glimpse into the lives of the people of Port Said during a time of great change and transformation. It is a poignant reminder of the resilience and strength of the human spirit, as well as the importance of preserving our cultural heritage.
