This series of article is treating philologically and biologically the list of 134/135 bird names included in the descriptions of the island of Tinnis in Lake Manzalah in the Delta of the Nile which are given by Yāqūt ibn ʿabdullāh al-Ḥamāwī (1179-1229)2 in his Muʿğam al-Buldān and by Zakariāʾ b. Muḥammad b. Maḥmūd al- QazwInī (1203-1283)3 in his Cosmography, Kitāb ʿAğāʾib al- Maẖlūqāt wa ġarāʾib al-Mawğūdāt. As the amount of material involved in this study is extensive, the treating will take place using several articles.
