| Description: | Allah! Allah! Allah! Motley thousands thrilled to frenzy as High Priest Said rides through City in great festal procession. Cairo, Egypt High angle shot of a street parade amid heaving crowds. People carry banners with Egyptian writing on them. Some people have drums and other play small pipes. The High Priest, wearing a white turban headdress, rides on a camel covered with decoration. The crowd is packed so tight that he can hardly move forward, and the camel is almost hidden from view. (Coptic Church) | |
