Camels
There is no other animal which is so
recognisably 'Arabian' as the camel. A
supercilious-looking creature with knock knees,
an odd gait and a reputation for nastiness,
which is why many were muzzled.
Several types of camel were to be seen in Aden.
They were used for a variety of purposes such as
riding, burden, pulling water carts,
lime-crushing, drawing well-water and as mounts for
the Camel Troop of the
Aden Protectorate Levies. |
