'Walled city of El Kab, seen from a door of a tomb in the cliffs, Egypt', 1905.Artist: Underwood & Underwood
'Walled city of El Kab, seen from a door of a tomb in the cliffs, Egypt', 1905. 'That sombre grey wall, beginning on the left and extending as far as the eye can follow on the right, is the fortified wall of the city known to the ancient Egyptians as Nekhan. It is the only city wall, practically intact, which has survived from such a remote age in any century; for it was erected at least in the days of Abraham, not less than two thousand years before Christ, and possibly much earlier.' Stereoscopic card. Detail. From a series called Egypt Through the Stereoscope, text by James H Breasted.
