Milking, cowherd and bringing wood from the forest with a mule are among the daily activities that play an important role in the traditional life of the villagers. These activities are not only important parts of the villagers' daily livelihood, but also represent the deep connection between humans and nature and the earth.
Milking is one of the first things done early in the morning. A village woman wearing a simple dress and tying a knot on her head goes to the cows. At this time, the weather is still cool and calm. The cows are resting in the stable. After preparing the milking equipment, the village woman pours fresh and sweet milk into the container. The quiet and gentle sound of milking and the joy of communicating with animals are the characteristics of these moments. This milk is used as the main source of protein and nutrition for the family.
After milking, the village woman takes the cows to the plains or pastures. Cows need to graze and this is one of the important tasks in the life of villagers. The village woman guides the cows and takes care of them until they reach a suitable pasture where they graze and graze slowly during the day. This process, in addition to providing food for the animals, is an opportunity to connect more with nature and enjoy the tranquility of the environment.
In addition to milking and cowherd, one of the essential tasks in village life is collecting wood for burning in winter and in some cases, cooking. As a strong and reliable animal for carrying loads, the mule has the ability to carry large and heavy wood. A village man cuts wood from forest trees with an ax and a saw and brings them home with a mule. These woods are essential for fires in the cold season, and for this reason, they are collected regularly.
