Arab-Islamic Historical Characters
This cartoon is intended to summarize a significant portion of Arab-Islamic history, by highlighting some of the important historical characters such as Zenobia of Palmyra, Al Hassan As-Sabbah, Ibn An-Nafis, Al-Jahiz, Ad-Du'aliy, Al-Khwarizmiy, Al-Maymuniy, Ibn Al-Haytham, Ibn-Rushd (Averroes),and Selim III. This cartoon was published for me in the Caravan newspaper at the American University in Cairo in fall 2004.
