Photos from the 20th

ITS ALWAYS INTERESTING TO SEE OLD PICTURES FROM THE PAST AND HOW THE WEAPONS WERE WORN AS WELL AS HOW THE PEOPLE LIVED. THEY SEEM TO HAVE LIKED TO HAVE SEVERAL DAGGERS IF THEY COULD AFFORD THEM.
I RECOGNIZE THE WATER PIPE BUT WHAT IS THE INTERESTING CHURN LIKE ITEM IN THE SECOND PICTURE?

Vandoo, I assume you refer to the wood mortar also known as Jouran. It is used to mortar the coffee grains.

Beautiful images, thank you.

It always wonderful to see weapons in old photos and as seen here, in everyday context. The images seem very natural and less staged than many seen on say postcards of old.
