Ethnic groups, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, 1918

1918

“Three types of coast native. [L to R] Swahili, Somali, Arab.” Portrait of three men standing outside possibly connected to the military camps at Dar es Salaam where Lt. Irvine was stationed in early 1918. ❧ The image is from an album chronicling the war time experiences of Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) in German East Africa and Portuguese East Africa with the Royal Army Medical Corps. During this time he would meet Dr John W Arthur which in turn would lead to his missionary work at Chogoria in Kenya.
