1. Title: A Local Guide Leads Travelers through the Ancient Ruins of Ephesus, Selcuk, Turkey (1908) 2. Description: This black-and-white photograph, dated 1908, depicts a local Turkish guide leading a group of tourists on mules through the ancient ruins of Ephesus in Selcuk, Turkey. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the early days of international tourism. The guide, dressed in traditional Turkish attire, skillfully navigates the rugged terrain, pointing out historical landmarks to his intrigued and fascinated clients. The tourists, mostly women dressed in elegant Edwardian-era outfits, gaze in awe at the magnificent ruins, their faces filled with wonder and excitement. In the background, the grand columns and intricate carvings of the ancient city of Ephesus rise majestically, standing as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this region. The mules, with their burdened baskets, add an authentic touch to the scene, emphasizing the arduous journey that once was a requirement for travelers seeking knowledge and adventure. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, where travel was an adventure, and the pursuit of history and knowledge was a source of fascination and excitement. It serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of Turkey's ancient ruins and the vital role of local guides in sharing their country's history with the world. 3.
