About this item
- Content
The documents contained in this file are correspondence related to the Dowasir tribe. In 1923, approximately half of the members of the Dowasir, a Sunni tribe who had been resident in Bahrain since 1845, left the island and moved to Dammam on the mainland.
The documents in this file discuss the impact of the tribe's departure, Bin Saud's relationship with the tribe, Shaikh Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa's attitude towards the Dowasir and Bin Saud, the Dowasir's desire to return to Bahrain, discussions regarding whether the tribe should be allowed to return and whether any compensation should be paid to its members.
The nature of the British role in Bahrain and the Poltical Agent's relationship with Shaikh Hamad are also discussed.
