There's suq for everything - including blacksmithing. Sadly, the tonal range of this jpeg isn't enough to preserve the detail inside the shop where the smith was making a hoe. The simple furnace and primitive hand-operated bellows were complemented by an arc-welder and a shiny new Black and Decker angle grinder. A typical example of how old and new tend to sit confortably side by side in this most fascinating of cultures.
