In het bergland van Tripolis by A. de Mathuisieulx
"In het bergland van Tripolis" by A. de Mathuisieulx is a historical travel account written in the early 20th century, specifically during the first decade of the 1900s. The book chronicles the author's exploration of the mountainous regions of Tripoli, providing insights into the geography, inhabitants, and historical ruins found in this lesser-known part of Africa. The narrative is rich in detail as it describes the author's journeys and discoveries while navigating
through political challenges of the time. The book recounts the author's adventures beginning with a caravan departure from Tripoli, exploring ancient sites like the ruins of Sabathra and the double tomb of Arisuth, and offering observations on the Berber tribes and their way of life amidst the challenging conditions of the region. As the author travels deeper into the interior, he encounters various landscapes and communities, detailing the agricultural practices, social customs, and historical significance of the ruins encountered. Throughout the journey, themes of cultural isolation, the impact of historical conquests, and the struggle against natural and social adversities emerge, painting a vivid picture of early 20th-century life in and around the mountainous areas of Tripoli.
