This artwork captures a timeless ritual in the hills of Ramallah during the late 19th to early 20th century—Palestinian women gathered in a circle, crushing olives by hand with ancient stone tools. Their expressions carry focus and strength, echoing the intergenerational rhythm of harvest and home. The scattered olives and overflowing basket speak to both abundance and hard labor. In the background, a young girl stands watchfully, embodying continuity. Among olive trees and stone terraces, this scene is more than agricultural—it is a living archive of resilience, earth-bound wisdom, and communal pride.
