Description | This black and white photograph from approximately 1905 published by Bennett, Coleman & Co. Ltd depicts a group of Afridi (a subset of Zakka Khels tribes) warriors who were the last to fall in the Tirah Expedition in 1897-1898. Their guerilla tactics, marksmanship, technology, and numbers made them some of the most militarily skilled resistance. |
