EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken in the 1930s, a man is seen walking along a bustling street in Hama, a historic city located on the Orontes River in western Syria. The image captures the essence of daily life in this ancient city, where the rhythm of human activity intertwines with the natural flow of the river. On the left side of the street, one of the iconic Norias of Hama comes into view. These impressive devices, resembling water wheels, were a crucial part of the city's water supply system. The Norias played a major role in lifting water from the Orontes River to a higher elevation, providing essential water to the residents of Hama. The Norias were an integral part of the city's infrastructure, representing a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the people of Hama. The water wheels were operated by a system of buckets, pulleys, and ropes, with men working in unison to pump water to the city's reservoirs. As the man walks along the path, the Norias continue to turn, their massive wooden wheels creaking gently in the background. The scene is a poignant reminder of a time when human labor and simple machines worked together to meet the basic needs of a community. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Hama, a city that has endured through the ages, shaped by the Orontes River and the resourcefulness of its people. The Norias, with their timeless design and function, remain an enduring symbol of the city's past and its connection to the natural world.
