Petti Khan's Camel at Canobie Station, Queensland, Australia; Ca. 1895. At the time of this photograph, the women in the Queensland outback looked forward to the visit of the Afghan camelleers and hawkers. They brought news, haberdashery and household items. By 1901 there were estimated to be between 2000 and 4000 cameleers in Australia. This first generation of Muslims journeyed from India and Afghanistan, although they were generally referred to as Afghans.
