This category is correctly called Early photographers in Palestine.

Early photographers is meant here as: active before 1948, in Ottoman Palestine (from the invention of photography until 1917–1918), and in British-ruled Palestine (from the conquest in the First World War until withdrawal in May 1948). In this time "Palestine" and "Palestinian" did not have a single ethno-political significance, being used for a politically dependent territory and all of its inhabitants. Western photographers active in Palestine/the Holy Land during this period also belong added here, as do Armenian, Christian Arab, Jewish, Muslim Arab and any other resident photographers.

Please do not add photographers only active in the post-1948 states and territories of the Palestine region, i.e. the State of Israel, Jordanian-annexed and Israeli-occupied West Bank, the Egyptian- and Israeli-occupied, later self-administered Gaza Strip, Southern Lebanon and western Jordan. These do not belong here.
