Dorfstrasse i. Djale (1928). Im Vordergrund ein Behälter für Feldfrüchte. Die Öffnung ist oben, man steigt mit einer Leiter hinauf. Diese Behälter werden gebaut wegen der Ratten, die über die obere Ausbuchtung nicht hinauskönnen. Im Fall eines Dorfbrandes bleiben die Früchte unversehrt Village street in Djale, 1928. In the foreground: a container for the harvest. The opening is above. You have to climb up to the opening with a ladder. Such containers are built to defeat the rats, who cannot climb over the rim. If the village catches fire the container protects its contents
