The role of the hawker in Libya at the beginning of the twentieth century went beyond merely selling goods; it became a means of transmitting news, official announcements, and serving as a communication link between authorities and residents in cities like Tripoli. He held a special social status, with qualities such as good appearance, honesty, and a strong voice being essential, making him a trusted intermediary capable of reaching all segments of society.
