Passed the grave of one who had died in open desert, a small tumulus of stones marked the sad spot; passed also a few white-bleached camel's bones. Very cold, wind from north-east. Feel it more than the keenest winter's blast of Old England. Feel glad I took the advice of the Governor of Ghadames, and purchased a quantity of warm woollen clothing, heik, bornouse, and jibbah. 27th.
El-Lithām اللثام is the bandage which all the Touaricks wear around the face, covering every part of it except the top of the cheek-bones and the eyes. The houlee, حولي, is the same as the heik, and the jibbah, جبّه, is a huge frock or tobe, with short sleeves, and coming up close round the neck.
