^ The list given by Parkyns includes also Ahamda ("Lahamdy"), Guhayna, Kawahla, Batahin, Shenabla, Kerriat and Ghazaya, all of which have now broken away. In each case it was only a section of these tribes which was living under the
aegis of the Kababish at the time.
2 Their distinctive camel-brand is the "ba'ag" ("rip in the belly"), a long
horizontal line on the right side of the stomach. Nearly all add one or two short "dhira'as" on the foreleg. For details re these and other Kababish camel-brands
see my Camel Brands..., pp. 16 et seq.
^ These include an element of Doalib (Rikabia or Danagla).
* Their distinctive brand is a " Ku'" (a mark on the upper joint of the foreleg). " Ku'" = a joint.
* Probably of Shafkia origin. See p. 220, and p. 99 for the Lababfs among the Fur. There are "Awlad 'Ona" Beduin in Egypt (see Klippel, p. 6).
* 7.e. " Crocodiles."
^ Both sections use an " 'amud" as brand on the right side of the camel's
neck.
* Cp. list of subsections of Beni Helba and of Kenana.
' Connected on the one hand with the Rufa'a {q.v) and on the other with the Shabarka (q.v. sub Rufa'a). Their brand is the "shabill," or " shaiba" (q.v. on
pp. 210 and 280).
^° Their brand is a very long "shdbit" on the right shoulder.
