EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time from the late 19th century, as Scottish soldiers of the British Army proudly stand before the ancient Sphinx in Egypt. Dressed in their traditional kilts, these soldiers present a striking contrast against the sandy desert backdrop and the timeless enigma of the Sphinx. The image, taken around the 1880s, offers a glimpse into the early days of travel and exploration, as Europeans ventured to distant lands to discover and document the wonders of the world. During the 19th century, the British Empire held significant influence over Egypt, and the British military played a pivotal role in maintaining order and protecting British interests. The soldiers' presence at the Sphinx may have been part of a diplomatic mission, a military exercise, or simply a leisurely excursion. Regardless of the reason, this photograph serves as a testament to the rich cultural exchange that occurred between the East and the West during this era. The Scottish regiments, with their distinctive kilts and proud heritage, had a long-standing tradition of service in the British Army. Their presence in Egypt further emphasizes the global reach of the British Empire and the diverse makeup of its military forces. This photograph is an invaluable historical document, offering a unique perspective on the intersection of ancient history and modern military culture.
