Derbekkeh, Palestine, picture p. 580 in W. M. Thomson: The Land and the Book; or Biblical Illustrations Drawn from the Manners and Customs, the Scenes and Scenery of the Holy Land. Vol. II. New York, 1859.
Question About Sources: After researching this citation I found a brief reference to the "derbekkeh" being popular in Palestine, but NO picture. It appears from the image that these pictures are actually from Edward William Lane's book "An Account of the Manners and Customs of Modern Egyptians" (pp366-367) but the pictures were inverted and the original term "darabukkeh" was erased and replaced with the "Derbekkeh" that Thomson uses.
Hi, that is very interesting information! I scanned this picture from the Thomson-book (which I own). There is also a version on google-books, see here. Now, it looks as if Thomson "borrowed" his illustrations from anyone. Look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayt_Jibrin, where the picture from Thomson is obviously an adaption from the David Roberts-picture above (published 1842-49). Another example is p.568, which I believe Thomson copied from W. H. Bartlett, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestinian_Christians. Regards, TheRealHuldra (talk) 01:41, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).

Lane was very observant of fine detail, such as the detail of women's decoration to their hands, which Thompson puts in as typical of Palestine, whereas they were from Cairo. Of course, they may have been identical, but as I suspect they were not, I take the Illustrations in Thompson with a pinch of salt, unless they were clearly done by his son, or other local artist.
