Scope and Content Part of a collection of images from Halliday's travel to Asia Minior in 1911 with Dawkins. The original description in the SPHS register reads: "Afsharkeni: Northern Taurus".
Notes Date based on Halliday's travels in Asia Minor with Dawkins who was researching Greek dialects in Asia Minor, see BSA 17:286 and Dawkin's 1916 book, Modern Greek in Asia Minor. Afsharkeni is perhaps a mis-spelling on Halliday's part of Afshar Köi.
