تحفة النظار في غرايب الامصار وعجايب الاسفار 13.70.2

13.70.2

We went from Jurfattan to the city of Dah Fattan — with a on the undotted d and h without vowel; we have already given the spelling of fattan. It is a large city on an estuary, with many gardens, and in it there are coconuts, pepper, areca nut and betel, and much taro, with which they cook meat. As for bananas, I have not seen anywhere in the country more of them, or cheaper, than there.
