EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time, transporting us back to the shores of the Tigris River in Baghdad, Iraq, during the 20th century. The scene is set against the backdrop of the arid Mesopotamian desert, with the ancient city of Baghdad nestled in the distance. In the foreground, a group of local Arab natives skillfully navigate their traditional round wickerwork boat, known as a gufa or guffa, along the meandering river. The mesmerizing circular design of the boat, intricately woven from reeds and palm leaves, has remained unchanged for centuries, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of this region. The boat, which was once used for transportation and fishing, continues to be an essential part of the daily life and traditions of the local communities. The Tigris River, one of the two major rivers of Mesopotamia, has played a pivotal role in the history and development of the region, providing water for agriculture, transportation, and sustenance. The Arabs, who have lived in this area since ancient times, have developed a deep connection with the river and its surrounding landscape. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, showcasing the resilience and adaptability of the people of Mesopotamia, who have thrived in the harsh desert conditions for millennia. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring connection between the people and the land, as well as the importance of preserving traditional practices and cultural heritage.
