'Haute Égypte, Grand Temple de Denderah, vue genérale' (Upper Egypt, Great Temple of Dendera, general view)

    The photographer stands on the edge of the causeway, probably because when he would stand on the causeway itself, he would not have had a good view of the temple. The picture is interesting because it shows the temple much more under sand than nowadays.

    It would be very interesting to know where in Egypt this picture was made, or what the man's background was.
  • it is aai! said:
    The title is: "Derwiche pelerin" so this man is a "traveling sufi man", a "pelgrim derwish".

    well, i don't think he's an egyptian. from his appearance i can tell that he's a Bedouin! it's very obvious 'cause in Egypt men don't wear this kind of outfits specially in the 1800's when it was part of The Ottoman Empire! i guess he's a Bedouin from the Arabian peninsula who traveled to Egypt! that's what i believe! very interesting picture! :)
