Some of the photos are of the people living in these villages, but most are of the walls that form the warren of narrow streets, alleys and personal places that make up these communities. These walls are important because they form a centuries old backdrop for communication and interaction that is being displaced by modern development.
Some of what has been posted, written and scrawled over the years is official, some personal, some important and some trivial, but all are statements of meaning and are worthy of record.
