EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative reconstruction drawing, titled J910038, by the skilled graphic artists of English Heritage brings to life the scene of a family engaging in Iron Age farming practices. The serene landscape is dotted with rolling hills and lush greenery, as the family, clad in traditional garb, work together to plough their arable field. The oxen, harnessed to the plough, strain against their yokes, their powerful muscles rippling as they laboriously turn the soil. The family members, with their backs bent and hands calloused from the daily toil, seem to be in rhythm with the natural world around them. The livestock, grazing peacefully in the background, add to the idyllic rural setting. The intricate details of the plough and the oxen's harnesses, as well as the authentic costumes, attest to the meticulous research and dedication of the English Heritage Graphics Team. This illustration offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when agriculture was the backbone of communities and the connection between people and the land was deeply rooted.
