Description
View of a family of Bayt Kathir Bedouin from the Bayt Gidad lineage in the Wadi Haluf. In the foreground the Bayt Gidad family crowds around a man, possibly one of Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin guides, unloading a camel in a dry wadi. The bed of the wadi is strewn with small rocks, and behind them a steep rock slope rises in the background.
