Battle of Saragarhi
Battle of Saragarhi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"The Battle of Saragarhi was fought during the Tirah Campaign on 12 September 1897 between twenty one Sikhs of the 4th Battalion (then 36th Sikhs) of the Sikh Regiment of British India, defending an army post, and 10,000 Afghan and Orakzai tribesmen in a last stand. The battle occurred in the North-West Frontier Province, now a part of Pakistan, which then formed part of British India."

Now I found many resources on Sikh soldiers but none on the Afghan and Orakzai tribesmen. Anyone have any idea where to look, etc?

I have a question about battle of Chamkaur. Is it possible that at least one for the 40 soldiers was a female?
I am doing another painting on the what I pictured as the Battle of Chamkaur but with a female centered battle scene. So any resources/illustrations on the battle are appreciated. The haveli for instance, what would it look like?
