EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the timeless scene of a Turkish ox-cart making its way through the picturesque countryside of Gallipoli. The cart, pulled by two sturdy oxen, showcases the simple yet effective technology of solid three-block wheels, a design that dates back to the earliest wheel depictions in ancient Near Eastern and Mesopotamian civilizations. This traditional mode of transportation has remained unchanged for centuries, offering a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of the Ottoman Empire in Turkey. The rugged terrain and rustic surroundings add to the authenticity of the scene, transporting us back in time. The solid wheels of the cart provide stability and traction, enabling the oxen to traverse the uneven terrain with ease. This image is a testament to the enduring strength and resilience of rural communities and their connection to the land. The ox-cart represents a link to the past, a reminder of the simple ways of life that once dominated rural areas and continue to inspire us today.
