EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the Saxon period in this image of fieldwork in progress near the picturesque Bartlow Hills in Essex, England. Circa 1100 AD, the landscape is a hive of activity as farmers employ traditional methods to cultivate their lands. In the foreground, a team of oxen pulls a heavy plough through the rich, dark soil, turning it over to prepare it for planting. The ploughman's determined expression and the muscular power of the oxen convey the physical labor and dedication required to sustain life during this era. Beyond the plough, a scene of harrowing unfolds. A harrow, a tool with sharp teeth, is being drawn by a horse, raking the soil to break up any clumps and improve its structure for better seed germination. Meanwhile, in the distance, a farmer is sowing seeds, likely using a seed drill, to begin the next stage of the agricultural process. The careful attention to detail and the meticulous nature of these tasks highlight the importance of farming in Saxon society and the ingenuity of the people who lived during this period. This photograph, titled 'Ploughing Etc,' is a poignant reminder of the progress made in farming techniques over the centuries. It also offers a glimpse into the daily life of our ancestors and the challenges they faced in cultivating the land to feed their communities. The Bartlow Hills, with their timeless beauty, serve as a fitting backdrop to this historical scene.
