Note 248 — KHALIFAH THE FISHERMAN OF BAGHDAD.
Richard Francis Burton translation · Edition 2
Arab. “Jarrah” (pron. “Garrah”) a “jar.” See Lane (M. E. chapt. v.) who was deservedly reproached by Baron von Hammer for his superficial notices. The “Jarrah” is of pottery, whereas the “Dist” is a large copper chauldron and the Khalkínah one of lesser size.
