In it the towns and districts are
all described according to their situation from Tintalous, the point
from which they are made to radiate, both with regard to their compass
direction and distance. This account of the territorial division of
Aheer is nearly an exact translation from an Arabic paper, drawn up by
Mahommed Makhlouk, Fighi and Secretary of the Sultan En-Noor. I have not
distinguished any of the emphatic letters, the present transcript being
enough for my purpose.
