EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily life of the Native community in Duem or Ed Dueim, located on the banks of the White Nile in Sudan, circa 1910. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the lives of the Sudanese people during the early 20th century. In the foreground, we see a group of oxen, their large, curved horns adorned with intricate Morhig decorations, tethered to a tree. The oxen were an essential part of the community, used for agriculture, transportation, and various other tasks. The presence of the oxen suggests that the scene depicts a market day or a communal gathering. Behind the oxen, children play and interact, their curiosity piqued by the presence of the visitors. The huts in the background, made from mud bricks and thatched roofs, are typical of the traditional Sudanese architecture. The huts are arranged in a compact, organized manner, reflecting the communal living style of the people. The White Nile, a major source of life-giving water, flows gently in the background, providing the community with water for irrigation, drinking, and transportation. The lush vegetation along the riverbank adds to the idyllic scene. Despite the simple appearance of the scene, it is a testament to the rich cultural heritage and resilience of the Native people of Duem or Ed Dueim. Their connection to the land, their animals, and their community is evident in this photograph, making it a valuable historical record of a bygone era.
