The pool or Guelta or Archei is a beautiful oasis in the Sahara desert, located in the Ennedi region of northeastern Chad. The nomadic and semi-nomadic populations come there to collect water and feed their camels. In the photograph you can see two men dressed in the traditional Chadian way, with trousers and a long shirt of the same fabric. Most of their heads are covered by a turban that protects them from the sun and frequent sandstorms. Each of them rides a dromedary and drags a third. The animals carry several drums to carry water from the well. In the back part of the great sandstone wall that surrounds the guelta. Ennedi is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
