Pedestrians at the Western Wall, Jerusalem 1938
Pedestrians move along a street near the Western Wall, the holiest site in Judaism at the foot of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem's Old City. The wall, a remnant of the retaining wall of the Herodian Temple, had already been a destination for Jewish pilgrims and prayer for centuries by 1938. The footage dates from the period of the Arab Revolt, when religious sites in Jerusalem were regularly monitored by British security forces. Everyday street life and religious devotion coexist here.
