The Tragic Irony of History: Dr. Uthman Lateef
The Persistent Power of Egypt's Mamluks
The Mamluks were a corps of slaves which went from being the elite bodyguards of the Ayyubid Caliphate founded by Saladin, to running Egypt for themselves. It lasted as an independent state for over 250 years, from 1250 to 1517 when Egypt was conquered by the Ottoman Empire. But the Mamluks survived.
By the 1630s, a Mamluk emir managed to become de facto ruler of the country. By the 1700s, the importance of the pasha (Ottoman governor) was superseded by that of the Mameluk beys, and it was even made official. Two offices, those of Shaykh al-Balad and Amir al-hajj -- both offices held by Mameluks -- represented the rulers of Egypt. In the name of the Ottoman Sultan, of course. It was only with the invasion of Egypt by Napoleon in 1799 that the Mamluk power center was permanently ended.
Sprinkler flask (blown glass with marbled decoration) of the Ayyubid dynasty. Artist unknown; ca. 1100-1130. Now in the Louvre.
There was an ayyubid flag with an eagle (the wiki said that it was Saladin's standard) but it has been removed from the internet completely, here it is
from /r/vexillology Top comment: So, this flag was on the wiki for the Egyptian flag, so I just recently found it in my huge gallery... I tried to find it on the internet but I didn't find it. Then I realized that it could be completely deleted from my device and it would disappear, so, I thought that I would share it here to keep it preserved, I hope it is reestablished on the internet again
