    Gadar is a traditional rural agricultural village of Sudan. They are animal herders (goats, mostly) and farmers cultivating dates, fava beans (a Sudanese staple), alfalfa and more. The pictures look around the village.
    The 1st picture is of a few of their goats. The 2nd picture looks at one of their homes. The 3rd picture looks along an irrigation canal that is fed from the Nile. The field in the background is fava beans. The 4th picture looks along one of the village roads showing a few of their date palms.
    The 5th picture looks across a central Compound. Note the stacked sacks to the rear. Those are sacks of dates.
    The last picture shows a traditional artisan weaving the support within a bed frame.
