The Jambwah is also mentioned by him on p. 124 in a note to Nº. 581. Steingass, 373, only gives jambīyah, "a kind of arms or armour." Shakespear, 789, has "a dagger." There are also some interesting remarks by Yule, "Glossary", 357, under "Jumbeea." He inclines to a derivation from janb, A., the side.
