Notes
"Aden, of old one of the main Eurasian ports for goods from China, Southeast Asia and India on their way to the Mediterranean lands, was controlled during the 13th-15th centuries by the Rasūlid dynasty. One of their kings, al-Malik al-Afdal al-Abbās b. Alī (1363-1377) wrote multilingual glossaries (vocabularia) of extraordinary importance, universally termed the Rasūlid Hexaglot. This work presents the translation, commentary, and explanation of the socio-historical context."--Provided by publisher. | "This version contains only the Arabic (script and transliteration) and the English translation; separate versions are planned to cover the remaining languages, Persian, Turkic, Greek, Armenian, and Mongol which are part of the Hexaglot"--Provided by publisher.
