— {Lentz.)
A large unwalled village in the Gunabad sub-division of the Tabas dis
trict of Khorasan. It contains about 600 houses and 100 shops of all
sorts in the hdzdr and elsewhere, at present. Outside the town is an ark
or citadel, which, though presenting an imposing appearance from
a distance, is in a ruinous state as regards its defences. There are
numerous fruit gardens, and their produce is immense, owing to the
fertility of the soil and the abundance of water.
The view from the high central tower of the citadel is a striking and
most unusual one for Persia. Around the town, for a radius of nearly
a mile, are waving fields of golden coloured wheat. Beyond them in every
direction is cultivated ground, on which the young opium lies green. The
whole of this expanse is dotted about with walled fruit gardens filled with
large fruit trees, while farther still beyond them, numerous belts of trees,
with domes and minarets rising above them mark the positions of other
villages. Water good from kdriz. Supplies abundant.— {Khanikoff;
Vaughan; C. E. Yate ; Maula Bakhsh.)

A village in the Turbat huluk of the Turbat-i-Haidari district of Kho

A large village of some 250 houses, about 35 miles due south of Turbat-
i-Haidari and 41 or 42 by road. It is situated on a large plain, which
is covered with grass and bushes where uncultivated. The water-supply
is entirely derived from rain water, which is collected in covered wells;
