AlAhwaz Etymology
Summary
edit
| Description |
English: A part of Gazetteer of the Persian Gulf book by J.G. Lorimer explaining the etymology of AlAhwaz name, page 33: "It has been suggested that اهواز (Ahwāz) is a corruption of احواز plurar of the word حوز (Hūz) common in southern 'Arabistan in the sense of a cltivated area or estate. The conjecture is plausible, and furnishes an explanation at the same time of the origin of the name Hawizeh, and possibly even of that Khūzistān – the old name of 'Arabistan – which may have been in the beginning "Hūzistan". |
