Summary edit

Description
Français : Photographie de la petite garnison turque de Cheikh Saïd prise à la sauvette par le journaliste français Hugues Le Roux en décembre 1900. Le Roux et son petit groupe furent interceptés par les Turcs dès qu'ils eurent mis pied à terre sur la plage de Cheikh Saïd. Ils furent forcés par les Turcs de reprendre la mer.
« Nous avons la route coupée par un éventail d’hommes d’assez mauvaise mine armés de fusils de type égyptien. Ils portent leurs cartouches en ceintures. De hauts fez rouges qui les coiffent constituent le seul signe régulier d’uniforme. Ils avancent d’un mouvement continu, pareil à celui que nos gardiens de la paix emploient pour refouler le bon peuple les jours d’échauffourées; seulement, ce n’est pas le trottoir qui est derrière nous, c’est la mer. » (Hugues Le Roux, Ménélik et nous (1902), p. 58-59.)

Licensing edit

This file might NOT be in the public domain.

It was previously considered to be in the public domain because it is a scan (or similar) by the Bibliotheque Nationale de France, but not everything scanned by the BNF is automatically in the public domain.

It is possible that this file is in the public domain for other reasons, for example because it was published a long time ago (anything before ca. 1900 is most likely ok) or because its author / artist / photographer died over 70 years ago and it was published over 95 years ago. In such cases, a new rationale should be applied, and a different license tag (see Commons:Licensing and valid license tags at Commons:Copyright tags) should be used.

If the file is not found to be in the public domain, it might be nominated for deletion (NOT by any automatic process, but manually).

See below for the previous rationale (not applicable anymore).
