EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling atmosphere of Market Square in Mafeking, South Africa, during the 1910s. The image presents a vibrant scene of African traders and locals interacting with one another, exchanging goods and services in the heart of this historic town. Mafeking, now known as Mahikeng and located in the North West Province, was an important trading hub during this era. The Market Square, with its lush trees and open spaces, was the center of commercial activity, where people from all walks of life came together to buy and sell. In the foreground, a group of African men and women are engaged in various transactions, while in the background, the shops and buildings of the town can be seen. Among these establishments, the Smith Draper and Outfitter, Lennon the Chemist, and other shops are clearly visible. These businesses catered to the diverse needs of the community, providing essential goods and services that ranged from clothing and textiles to medicines and household items. The Market Square in Mafeking was more than just a place of commerce; it was a social hub where people connected, shared stories, and strengthened community bonds. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and cultural diversity of South Africa during the early 20th century.
