JANJIREH (2)—Lat. 30° 42' N. ; Long. 48° 52' E. ; Elev.
A large village or group of settlements in Southern Arabistan in the Fal-
lahieh district, situated at some distance from the left bank of the Jarrahl
river below the head of the Janjireh canal and above that of the Ivulfl.
It is thus a little to the south of Umm-us-Sakhar, and only a mile or tvo
from the place where the Jarrahi river is finally broken up into canals.
Winding paths connect it with Buzieh, between the same two canals,
and with Fallahieh town, which is about 9 miles to the west. The heads
of the principal canals in the district are commanded at Janjireh, and
it has been pointed out that the point is one of which occupation would
be obligatory in case of military operations in the district. Janjireh has
some date-groves, but stands in otherwise open country .-—{Foreign Depart
ment Gazetteer, 1905.)

of the road thence to Isfahan. {Schindler.)
JANNA— Lat. Long. Elev. 1,306'.
A town in the district of Bastak, containing a population, it is said, of
1,000, but as there are at least 800 houses the inhabitants probably number
between 2,000 and 3,000. East and west is a vast amount of
cultivation and to the north are extensive date-tree plantations. T e
inhabitants are all Sunnis, who cultivate wheat and barley, which t ey
export. They also own a considerable number of donkeys, perhaps no
less than 2,000, and do a lot of carrying between Charak, Lar, Mughu
and Ishkanau. There are several villages west of this, in which direction
