ABSTRACT
There is another tribe of public women in Egypt called Halmyc they .are fewer in numbers than the GIwwc1,zys, but like them intermarry among
themselves. The men are tinkers, and horse or 888 doctors; the women for the greater part, but I believe not all, common prostitutes. They wander over the country much like Gypsies. Of the latter, which are ca.lled here Gl!adjar (in Syria Korbat), very few families are found in Egypt; they are more numerous in Syria.
