People gathered around a well and wanted to haul water. The rainy season had already come though, the town was short of water. And everyone was piled around wells. It was common to be seen in this town.

I thought it was a heavy physical work to carry water. Yet it seemed to be a job for women here. Most people around the well were women. Maybe man took a heavy responsibility somewhere else at the same time.
