EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in the daily life of female milk vendors in the bustling town of Dire Dawa (Dire Daoua), located in the eastern part of Ethiopia (Abyssinia) during the 1920s. The image shows a group of women, dressed in traditional Ethiopian attire, sitting in the sun and taking a break from their work. They are surrounded by large clay jars, which are used to store and transport the fresh milk they sell. The women appear to be resting, perhaps catching their breath before continuing their sales for the day. Dire Dawa was an important commercial town in the region, and milk was a staple commodity. These women were an integral part of the local economy, providing fresh milk to the townspeople. Milk was a valuable source of nutrition, particularly for children, and these vendors played a crucial role in ensuring that families had access to this essential food source. The scene is reminiscent of the quiet moments that often occur in the daily lives of working women, where the routine of selling and providing for their families is interrupted by a brief respite. The women's expressions are calm and content, reflecting the satisfaction that comes from providing for their community. The image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of these Ethiopian women and the role they played in the town's economy during the early 20th century.
