Note 11 — Chapter IX · ERZERUM
Reading edition
The excursion to the Dümlü Dagh is a favourite one in summer. The sources of the Kara Su, or Western Euphrates, have been visited and described by Wagner (Reise nach Persien, Leipzig, 1852, vol. i. pp. 237 seq.) and by Strecker (Zeitschrift für Erdkunde, Berlin, 1869, pp. 159 seq.). For a catalogue of the various species of birds found in the marshes of the Kara Su or in the neighbourhood of Erzerum see Curzon, Armenia, London, 1854, chap. x. pp. 143 seq. ↑
