Men of different classes stood around, or squatted on their heels upon ihe groimd, all in flowing robes of different colouring and various stages of cleanliness, some with heads covered in turbans, some with the tarboosh, others with the kahleelyah or head handkerchief, all chattering with the exception of the higher classes and theB edouins, the latter clothed in white, with the distinctive thong of camels hair wound about the head covering, arms folded and face passively serene, looking as though they had stepped right out of theO ld Testament 1Y ashmak or face veil.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
