EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from Israel's past, circa 1908, during the Ottoman era. The image shows a group of women in traditional attire, deeply engrossed in the age-old process of grinding corn using a rotary quernstone handmill. The mill, a simple yet effective technology, consisted of two large stones, one stationary and the other rotated by a handle, which were used to grind the wheat or corn into coarse meal. The women in the photograph wear long, flowing robes and head coverings, their faces expressive with focus and determination as they work in unison. The scene transports us back to a simpler time, where the daily rhythm of life revolved around the land and the harvest. The women's hands, calloused from years of labor, move in a fluid, practiced motion, as they skillfully manipulate the mill to grind the corn. The milling of grain was an essential aspect of rural life in Israel, and the use of rotary quernstones was a common practice in various parts of the Middle East. The ground corn was used to make a variety of dishes, including flatbreads, porridge, and other staple foods. The process of grinding the grain was a communal activity, with women often gathering together to grind their harvested crops, creating a sense of camaraderie and community. This photograph is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the people of Israel, who, even in the face of adversity, found ways to sustain themselves and their communities through traditional practices like milling corn with a rotary quernstone handmill.
