Colonialism Hills Mozambique Portuguese Torre Tombo


EDITORS COMMENTS
Torre do Tombo, Mozambique, Portuguese East Africa (circa 1900s) This postcard image transports us back in time to the early 1900s, showcasing the Torre do Tombo in Mozambique, a significant landmark during the Portuguese colonial era in East Africa. The Torre do Tombo, which translates to 'Tombo Tower,' is a historic lighthouse nestled atop a hill overlooking the Indian Ocean. The photograph presents a breathtaking coastal scene, with the tower standing proudly against a backdrop of rolling hills and the vast expanse of the cerulean sea. The lighthouse, with its distinctive red and white stripes, served as a vital navigational aid for seafarers sailing along the eastern coast of Africa. Boats of various sizes can be seen anchored in the calm waters, their sails furled, as if waiting for the right conditions to set sail once more. The tranquil scene is a stark contrast to the bustling activity that would have taken place around the harbor during the height of Portuguese colonial rule. The Torre do Tombo is a testament to the rich history of Portuguese colonialism in Africa, a period marked by exploration, trade, and the establishment of settlements along the African coast. This postcard image offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a fascinating insight into the lives of those who lived and worked in Mozambique during the 1900s.
