File:RamadiWeaverJewish1918.jpg
Summary
Photograph by a British Officer from 1918 of a Jewish weaver in the small town of Ramadi in the middle Euphrates region of Iraq, weaving a typical goat-hair tent material used by the beduin tribes of Mesopotamia and the Syrian desert to the west. " Ar-Ramadi is a wealthy settlement with about fifteen hundred inhabitants. The Beit [Family] Aram is the richest family. For about forty years, or since the time of Midhat Pasha, who greatly improved, or one may say, even founded Ar-Ramadi, about 150 Jews have lived in the town together with the Moslems and have had their own synagogue". observations in 1912, by ALOIS MUSIL, AMS PRESS.
