bullock carts
Bovine-drawn vehicles
A bullock cart is a wooden cart pulled by bullocks (castrated male cattle), used for transporting goods and people in South Asia, Southeast Asia, and parts of Africa.
These carts have been essential to rural economies for millennia and remain in use today, particularly where roads are unpaved or fuel is expensive.
Farmers loaded their harvest onto bullock carts for the journey to market.
The slow, steady pace of bullock carts has made them a symbol of traditional rural life.
