A village in the Abrquh district of Ears, 4 miles w T est of Mihrabad and
8 miles south-west of Abrquh town. Water here is plentiful, but fuel,
forage and supplies are scarce.— {MacGregor — Newcomen, 1905.)
HARIGAH—
A place in the Borazjun sub-district of Dashtistan, where there is a ford
over the Dalaki river. This ford appears to be the best one for crossing
the river, here called Dalaki, but which, below Darudgah, becomes the
Rud Hilleh. The ford lies about 4 miles up-stream from Kullul, but a detour
of 7 miles must be made to reach it. There is a small tower, and a few houses,
on the left side of the ford. In April the ford was 30 yards wide, with a hard
and stony bottom. Chick considers that the ford is practicable for any
wheeled transport. The crossing from the left bank of the river is made
obliquely, heading downstream, so that the Zira bank is reached just opposite
Harigah. The start is made about 500 yards up-stream from the tower.—
{Chick, 1910.)

The ruins of an ancient Mussalman town in the island of Qais, Persian Gulf.
They extend three-quarters of a mile along the shore, and consist now of
mere mounds of stone and pavements of masonry ; a mosque, however,
which was of well-cut stone, had one minaret standing till about 50 year s
ago. The pillars of this mosque were octagonal in section, and the blocks o f
which they were composed were mortised together by central tenons.
