EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment of the inaugural flushing of the outlets of the Nag Hammadi Barrage's flushing culverts on the 22nd of July, 1928. The Nag Hammadi Dam, located in Egypt, was a significant engineering feat of the British colonial era, completed in 1930. The dam, named after the nearby ancient Egyptian town of Nag Hammadi, was built to control the flow of the Nile River, provide irrigation water to the surrounding farmlands, and generate hydroelectricity. The image showcases the outlets of the flushing culverts in the foreground, with workers in traditional Egyptian garb standing nearby, ready to open the valves. The stonework of the barrage can be seen in the background, a testament to the meticulous engineering and construction that went into its creation. The Nile River flows calmly beneath the dam, its waters reflecting the sun's rays, creating a serene and picturesque scene. The Nag Hammadi Dam was a collaborative effort between the Egyptian Government's Public Works Department and the contractor, Jackson & Bragg Ltd. The opening of the dam was a significant event, marking the beginning of a new era of water management and hydroelectric power generation in Egypt. The photograph is part of an album commemorating the opening of the Nag Hammadi Barrage, a historical record of this engineering marvel and its impact on the region.
