Summary
editDescriptionBlacksmithing In Nigeria3.jpg |
English: This picture was taken in Upo village, Otukpo town in Benue State, Nigeria during a mushroom research survey. The ironwork activity is called blacksmithing, one of the oldest craft in Africa. This ancient profession in Africa is fast vanishing out of our contemporary world due to the fact that less people especially the youth are paying less attention to it. The various tools include anvil, hammer, burning apparatus (a drum-like object with long sticks fastened to it)-balloon/blower to produce heat for the iron, charcoal is often usually used as heat source. The process involves forging diverse ironwork from metals. The iron is heated under high temperature until it becomes soften to be shaped with the use of hammer and chisel on the anvil. In the process of heating, blower called bellows are used to blow air on the charcoal to generate intensive heat. |
