Photograph taken in the early 20th century in Sheikh Abdulhamid Market, Ahwaz (Arabistan), depicting a group of Arab men in traditional attire. Seated at the center is Ahmad al-Barouti; his surname echoes a legacy tied to “barūt” (Arabic for gunpowder), suggesting ancestral ties to the trade or production of gunpowder or firearms. Such occupational surnames were common and often indicated the family’s trade or profession, providing insight into their societal role and status. Clad in traditional Arab dress, this image captures the rich Arabic cultural tapestry of Ahwaz before the 1925 Iranian occupation.
