Keuta, in the Bolan Pass, 1857. Creator: Unknown
Keuta, in the Bolan Pass, 1857. View...engraved from a sketch by Captain Malcolm Green, H.E.I.C.[Honourable East India Company]S. It shows the small village of Keerta, one of the few halting-places in the celebrated Bolan Pass, on the high-road to Affghanistan and Persia, from India; a locality of considerable interest in our present position with Persia. The Bolan is not so much a "pass" over a lofty range as a continuous succession of ravines and gorges, its length being between fifty-four and fifty- five miles; the highest point in the right of the view is the Camel's Hump Mountain. The pass is very important in a military point of view: it will be recollected that in 1839, the Bengal column of the Army of the Indus spent six days in marching through the pass, entering it on the 16th and leaving it on the 21st of March'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857
