EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a group of Turkish Zeibek warriors, a notorious irregular militia and guerilla force that once roamed the Aegean Region of the Ottoman Empire. Circa 1906, this image was taken in Izmir, Turkey, formerly known as Smyrna. The Zeibeks, also spelled as Zeybeks, were a formidable and elusive band of fighters who gained infamy for their bravery and cunning in the face of the Ottoman authorities. Dressed in traditional attire, the Zeibek warriors in this photograph wear turbans and long, flowing robes. Their faces are obscured, adding to the mystery and allure of these enigmatic figures. With their weapons at the ready, they exude an air of readiness and determination. The Zeibeks were known for their guerrilla tactics and their ability to evade capture, making them a significant challenge to the Ottoman Empire's rule. They were often labeled as brigands or bandits, but their actions were driven by a desire for autonomy and self-determination. This photograph offers a glimpse into a fascinating chapter of Turkish history, a time when the Ottoman Empire was undergoing significant change and the Zeibeks represented a symbol of resistance and rebellion. The image is a poignant reminder of the complex and intriguing history of Turkey and its people.
