East of Jordan, or the titles held by their owners in the late Ottoman rule, as well as the types of professions, agriculture, animal husbandry and their products, urban areas, forms of trade exchange, and the money and weights used in that period in the Karak Kasbah. The study showed that the decision books of the rights courts in the courts in eastern Jordan are a living historical record through which historical material can be formed that sheds light on the features of social and economic development.
