And therein also are many treasures, which compensate the kings of Egypt from the *pajlant* of Djebel al-Mocattām, the workers, the famines, and the dust (*and seed. B*) of industry and wondrous designs and idols of the planets.

(*Jaubert, I, p.131: terress travaillêes*). - *Sina'a* pl. *Sina'at* and *al-Sina'a* Iron. 1°. Factory, establishment where something is manufactured, like a foundry; p.,,f,,f,,f,,f,. Alcala fabrica, Marcol and Berggren under fabrique; the latter does not indicate the pronunciation, but the first two give *sina'a* with the fatha; it seems, however, that the pronunciation with the kesra is more correct, see Macrizi, II, p. 189. - 2°. A manufactured object. This meaning, which Macrizi (loco laud.) seems to indicate, cannot be doubted when comparing passages from Edrisi such as these: *al-sana'i' wa sunna'uha*, "the manufactured objects and those who manufacture them," p.: *al-sana'i'* or those that are sold, as well as merchandise, and which are pretty, p.,,. Edrisi even says, p.: *al-sina'at al-musta'malah* and means to manufacture; see further our article on this word. But we also possess formal testimony on this subject, that of Motarrizi, who says in his *al-Moghrib* (man. 613): "It is he who *al-sina'a* is the craft of crafts, and it is he who works with his hand, and from Ali Rassa we take from every craft its manufactured product, meaning that if the tradition is correct, we take from every craftsman his manufactured product." The word *sana'i'* also means manufactured objects among Ibn-al-Khatib, *Mi'yar al-ikhtibar*, p. 6, l. 3 ed. Simonet, among Maccari, II, p. 105, l. 1, and *al-sunna' al-'amali* abid, l. 8, is the equivalent of Edrisi's *al-sina'at al-musta'malah*. - 3°. Ornament, figure, p.,,. , a synonym of *sina'a*, since the manuscripts put one for the other, l. 4, note d; Becri, p. 24, l. 8. - *Sina'at* *masnu'at*, pl. *masnu'* a manufactured object, p.: *sina'a* fabricated thing by art; from de Sacy, Chrest., II, p.,,.

*Sanam* *Sanam*, column, p.,,. , , , , , , ; see M. de Slane's note on Becri (p. v) in the *Journ. asiat.*, 5th series, XII, p. 452, n. 2; Cazwini, II, p. 19, l. 5, p. 186, l. 6. In Africa, the name *sanam* is also given to the ruins of ancient Roman buildings, especially those of temples; see Barth, Reisen, I, p. 60, 84, 127. In this sense, it is already found among Ibn-Haucal, who says: "There are no stones and great buildings in it (*Tarsala*), cities and idols."
