Fair use for Libyan history edit

To illustrate that inhabitants of the Sahara some 7,000 years ago had domesticated cattle, since no picture can be obtained of the events themselves.

The image linked here is claimed to be used under fair use as:

  1. it is a scientifically significant image and apparently the only image of domesticated cattle some 7,000 years ago in the Libyan Sahara;
  2. it is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality);
  3. the photo is only being used for informational/educational purposes; and
  4. its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it shows the successful domestication of cattle in the Libyan Sahara some 7,000 years ago. This is depicted in the article and how it has a significant impact on Lbyan history to the general public.
