EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of an ox wagon making its way through the cobblestone streets of Sao Miguel, Azores, Portugal during the 1910s. The oxen, harnessed together in a strong team, pull the wagon with solid wheels and intricately woven wicker sides. The sturdy oxen, dressed in native harnesses, plod steadily forward under the watchful eye of their driver, dressed in traditional Portuguese attire. The ox wagon, a common mode of transportation during this era, was essential for the agricultural community of the Azores. Its solid wheels and wicker sides protected the cargo from the elements and the rough terrain. The wagon's design allowed for easy maneuverability on the uneven cobblestones, making it a practical choice for transporting goods throughout the island. The scene is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the people of Sao Miguel, who made the most of the natural resources available to them. The oxen, an integral part of the agricultural landscape, were used not only for transportation but also for plowing fields and other heavy labor tasks. This photograph, taken in the early 1900s, offers a glimpse into the past and the daily life of the Azores during a time when ox wagons were a common sight on the streets. The image is a reminder of the rich history and cultural traditions that continue to thrive in the Azores today.
