En savoir plus sur le livre

Focusing on indigenous knowledge, the book explores seasonal, astronomical, and agricultural insights found in Arab Gulf almanacs. It analyzes traditional information from local almanacs, Arabic texts, poetry, ethnographic interviews, and online discussions. A key aspect is the historical tracing of terms related to local seasonal knowledge, including weather stars dating back to the ninth century CE. Additionally, it addresses themes like pearl diving, fishing, seafaring, and pastoral practices, making it relevant to scholars of the Arab region and the Indian Ocean trade network.
