EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken circa 1910s in the Philippines, a group of Filipino farmers and laborers are seen working together to clear land for a new roadway using water buffalo. The scene exudes a sense of community and collaboration as the team members guide the powerful animals, each wearing traditional hats and holding long ropes attached to the animals' large, curved horns. The water buffalo, an essential part of rural life in the Philippines, are harnessed to a large, wooden plow, which they pull through the thick, muddy ground. The plow's sharp, curved blade cuts through the earth, turning it over and preparing it for the construction of the new road. The laborers follow closely behind, smoothing the ground and removing any debris or rocks that may hinder the progress of the plow. The use of water buffalo for land preparation was a common practice in the Philippines during this time, as the animals' strength and agility made them ideal for plowing through the dense, tropical terrain. This method of transportation and construction was not only cost-effective but also sustainable, as the animals were a renewable resource and could be used for various tasks on the farm. The photograph captures a moment in time when traditional farming methods were still prevalent in the Philippines, showcasing the resilience and resourcefulness of the Filipino people. The image is a testament to the importance of community and the role that animals played in shaping the landscape and infrastructure of the country.
