They were probably Greek Cypriots, although it has been suggested they may have come from Crete. Nothing is known of them before their first photographs were published in Egypt in the late 1870s, and even the names of the brothers themselves is unknown. It has been suggested their initials were C and G, and indeed early 20th century photographic postcards bearing the name C Zangaki have been located. Their photographs, however, were simply identified as Zangaki, the letter Z being frequently mistaken for a stylized L in several books, resulting in their work being incorrectly ascribed to Langaki. Indeed, until relatively recently, there was assumed to be one photographer with the name of A Zangaki until the discovery of a signboard bearing the legend Adelphoi Zangaki confirmed that the images were the work of brothers. While their GreekCypriot or Cretanroots are confirmed, the horse-drawn darkroom van with which they toured the length of the Nile bore the legend Zangaki Brothers, and to further confuse matters, the majority of their images are titled (in the negatives) in French. Amongst many fine images are photographs taken after the bombardment of Alexandria in 1882, and some eloquent commentaries on the popularity of the Grand Tour of Egypt in the 1880s."
