The Bābur-nāma in English (Memoirs of Bābur)

Note 848 — SECTION II. KĀBUL666

Annette Susannah Beveridge translation

I have not lighted on this name in botanical books or explained by dictionaries. Perhaps it is a Cis-oxanian name for the sax-aol of Transoxania. As its uses are enumerated by some travellers, it might be Haloxylon ammodendron, ta-ghas etc. and sax-aol (Aitchison, p. 102).

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
