Note 45 — SINDBAD THE SEAMAN[1] AND SINDBAD THE LANDSMAN.
Richard Francis Burton translation · Edition 2
Arab. “Kazdír.” Sansk. “Kastír.” Gr. “Kassiteron.” Lat. “Cassiteros,” evidently derived from one root. The Heb. is “Badih,” a substitute, an alloy. “Tanakah” is the vulg. Arab. word, a congener of the Assyrian “Anaku,” and “Kala i” is the corrupt Arab. term used in India.
