EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, depicts Mahommed Hussun, an indigenous Khoja of Uzbek Tartary from the early 19th century. The Khojas are an ethnic group of Shia Muslims, and Mahommed's father was an Uzbek while his mother was a Syud. The Khojas have a rich cultural heritage and have historically played an important role in the religious and social fabric of Central Asia. Mahommed is seen here wearing traditional Uzbek clothing, including a long, flowing coat and a distinctive turban. His costume reflects the unique blend of Central Asian and Middle Eastern influences that characterize the Khoja people. The intricate patterns and vibrant colors of his attire serve as a testament to the rich artistic traditions of the region. The photograph, as described by Elphinstone in 1815, was taken in Wurdaunzye, near Bokhaura, in Uzbekistan. Elphinstone, a British traveler and writer, was known for his extensive travels in Asia and his detailed accounts of the peoples and cultures he encountered. His observations provide valuable insights into the lives of the Khojas and other ethnic groups of Central Asia during this period. The Khojas continue to be an important and vibrant community in Uzbekistan and other parts of Central Asia today. Their rich cultural heritage, including their distinctive clothing and religious practices, continues to be a source of pride and inspiration for generations. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history and traditions of the Khoja people.
