Welcome to the legacy of Haji Ali, affectionately known as “Hi Jolly” by the locals. Born in Smyrna, now Izmir, Turkey, around 1828, Haji Ali became an iconic figure in the American Southwest through his involvement with the U.S. Camel Corps. Arriving in the United States in 1857 with the second shipment of camels, his expertise and vibrant personality quickly made him a standout among camel drivers and caretakers.
After the Camel Corps experiment concluded, Hi Jolly embraced the American Southwest, taking on various roles from prospector to courier. He is celebrated particularly in Quartzsite, Arizona, where his unique pyramid-shaped grave, topped with a camel, marks his contributions and enduring place in American history.
Explore the fascinating blend of cultural exchange and pioneering spirit that Hi Jolly brought to life, making him a legendary figure in the quirky history of the American Camel Corps.
