1976 Arabia Arabian Cultivated Fields Saudi Terrace Terraced Terraces
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1976, showcases the breathtaking terraced fields of As-Sudah, Saudi Arabia. The image transports us back in time to the 1970s, a period when traditional farming practices continued to shape the landscape of this arid region. The intricately designed terraces, carved into the rugged terrain, are a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the local people. The village of As-Sudah, nestled in the heart of the Saudi Arabian desert, is renowned for its lush, irrigated fields that contrast dramatically with the surrounding barren landscape. The terraces, which are believed to date back to ancient times, were constructed to harness the limited water resources and create fertile land for agriculture. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the rich agricultural history of Saudi Arabia, a country often associated with oil and desert landscapes. The terraces, which are still in use today, are a reminder of the importance of sustainable farming practices and the deep connection between the people and the land. The image also showcases the beauty and diversity of Saudi Arabia, a country that is often misunderstood due to its reputation as a desert nation. This photograph invites us to appreciate the country's complex history and the resourcefulness of its people, who have adapted to the harsh desert conditions to create a thriving agricultural community.
