Reading edition

Wárán وارَان. The name of the inhabitants of this part of the desert has been read by M. Quatremère, Benú Hareth, instead of Benú Wareth وارث; but the restoration of this name is important; since we learn from another passage in El Bekrí that the Benú Wareth were to the east of the Lumtúnah; and are thus enabled to perceive that the road to Aúdaghost lay eastwards from the road to Ghánah.—Agharef أَغَرَفْ MS. B.M. 102 v.—Akríri اقرىري Not. et Extr. p. 615. اقرىىدى MS. B.M.
