EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from the early 1930s in the bustling town of Bethlehem. The scene centers around the Virgins Well, a vital water source for the local community, located in the heart of the town. Children, dressed in simple clothing typical of the era, are seen carrying large earthen jars balanced precariously on their heads as they make their way to the well to draw water. The jars, a common sight in many Middle Eastern communities, were used to transport water from the well to their homes for daily use. The children's expressions convey a sense of determination and focus as they navigate the uneven terrain with their heavy loads. The community's reliance on the well for their daily water supply is evident in the hustle and bustle around it. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the people of Bethlehem during this time, highlighting their resilience and resourcefulness in the face of the challenges of obtaining a basic necessity like water. The Virgins Well, with its historic significance and importance to the community, has been a fixture in Bethlehem for centuries. The well's name is believed to be derived from the legend of the Virgin Mary drawing water from it during her visit to Bethlehem. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring spirit of community and the simple joys and challenges of daily life in the early 20th century.
