Women make traditional Iraqi flat bread during the Al-Kasid family's Istikbal, or homecoming, in their home village Suq ash Shuyukh, about 20 miles southeast of Nasiriyah, Iraq, Thursday, July 31, 2003...The women spend most of their time making dough, baking bread, milking cows, taking care of children, preparing food, etc. as the men gather out front of the compound. Women wear black as a sign of mourning for a close loved one that has died; some for a year and some forever after the death.
