ox team
Draft cattle pair
A team of oxen yoked together to pull heavy loads—plows, wagons, or logs.
Before mechanized farming and transport, ox teams provided essential draft power for agricultural work and hauling: The ox team dragged the fallen timber to the mill.
The phrase evokes an era of slower, harder physical labor.
