Note 100 — EL IDRISI COMPARED WITH EL BEKRI.

Reading edition

To the usual various readings, Meghzárah, Meghrárah, Meghwárah, Meḳzárah, &c., M. De Humboldt (Histoire de Géographie, I. p. 291) has added Mufráda. D’Herbelot (under the title Maczarat) seems to consider this to be the name of a fortress, and not of an extensive region. In the Rec. de Voy. V. this name, where it first occurs (p. 10), is written Maghráwah مغراوة (afterwards changed into Maghzárah مغزارة); and the copy of Ibn el Wardi, in the possession of D. P. de Gayangos, has Maghráwah throughout.
