Assiut

Clashes also broke out in Alexandria, Aswan, Luxor, and Assiut.

On the evening of the 15th of December we got on board a steamer which took us down most comfortably to Assiut.

From Assiut we took the train to Cairo, where we arrived safely on the 21st of December, 1891.

On the road to Assiut is a fine Roman columbarium or dove-cote.

The Assiut weir across the Nile is just about half a mile long.

Administratively the oasis forms part of the mudiria of Assiut.
