EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the year 1905, showcases a group of Coracle men from Carmarthen, Wales, proudly displaying their traditional boats along the banks of the Tywi River. The Coracle, a lightweight and round boat with a deep design, is unique to the region and is particularly suited for use in tidal waters where there are no rapids. The men are seen carrying their coracles on their backs, demonstrating the ease with which these boats can be transported. The Coracle, a symbol of Welsh heritage and craftsmanship, has been in use for centuries in the area. The men in this photograph, dressed in traditional clothing, represent the long-standing connection between the people of Carmarthen and their ancestral craft. The coracle was once the primary means of transportation and fishing for the local community, allowing them to navigate the river's tidal waters with ease. The Coracle's design is simple yet effective, made from a single piece of woven willow, coated with a layer of bitumen and covered with animal hides. The boat's shallow draft and round shape make it highly maneuverable, allowing the fishermen to navigate the winding river and reach areas that larger boats cannot. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the rich history and traditions of the people of Carmarthen and their connection to the Tywi River. The Coracle men, with their boats slung on their backs, represent a time when the river was the lifeblood of the community, and the coracle was an essential tool for daily life.
