EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the Bisharin tribesman from Aswan, Egypt, as he proudly displays his traditional weapons and musical instrument, circa 1910s. The Bisharin people, also known as the Beja or Bishari, are a nomadic tribe originally from the northern regions of Sudan and Egypt. They are renowned for their exceptional skills in fencing and archery, making them formidable warriors in their communities. In this image, the tribesman holds a large, curved shield made of animal hide, adorned with intricate geometric patterns and fringes. The shield protects him from his adversary's attacks while he wields a spear, a versatile weapon that can be used for both throwing and close combat. The spear's shaft is wrapped with fiber, providing a better grip, and its sharp, pointed tip is designed to penetrate armor or flesh. Despite their warrior nature, the Bisharin people are also known for their musical talents. The small Egyptian lyre held by the tribesman is a testament to their rich cultural heritage. The lyre, a stringed musical instrument, is believed to have been used for both entertainment and spiritual purposes. Its distinctive shape and intricate design reflect the craftsmanship and creativity of the Bisharin people. This photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of these fascinating nomadic tribesmen, showcasing their strength, resilience, and artistic abilities. The Bisharin people continue to preserve their traditions and customs, making them an essential part of the cultural tapestry of Egypt and North Africa.
