Notes
In the late Ottoman era and the beginning of the era of the Emirate of Transjordan; These records shed light on urbanization, the composition of the population and their activities, and show the relationship between the administration (local government) and the people. The oldest municipal record of Ma’an in southern Jordan was used, and that was four years after the annexation of Ma’an to the Emirate of East Jordan. Through it, it was possible to study the economic and social conditions in the Kasbah of Ma’an, and the municipality’s relationship with the people and its role in improving health and economic conditions at the beginning of the era of the Emirate of East Jordan. The registers of the resolutions of municipal councils are among the most important sources for the study of the urban centers in Jordan at the end of the Ottoman period and the beginning of the Emirate of Transjordan. These registers shed light on the culture, structure and activities of the population and clarify the relationship between the local government administration and the population. I used the earliest municipal register of Ma‘an in southern Jordan, which began four years after Ma‘an became part of the Emirate of Transjordan. From them it was possible to study the economic and social conditions in the city of Ma‘an and the relationship of the municipality with the population and its role in improving health and economic conditions at the beginning of the Emirate of Transjordan.
