with the authorities at Dizful, consequently the tribe may be regarded as
divided between the two districts of Northern ’Arabistan. It is a remark-•
able fact that of the Shaikhs—who are distantly related to each other—
neither really belongs to the Kathir tribe, but both are of Bait bad
extraction .—( Persian Gulf The historical term used to describe the body of water between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran. Gazetteer, 1908.)
