NOTE 2.–A MS. treatise on precious stones cited by Ouseley mentions
_Shebavek_ in Kermn as the site of a Turquoise mine. This is probably
_Shahr-i-Babek_, about 100 miles west of the city of Kermn, and not far
from _Prez_, where Abbott tells us there is a mine of these stones, now
abandoned. Goebel, one of Khanikoff”s party, found a deposit of turquoises
at Taft, near Yezd. (_Ouseley”s Travels_, I. 211; _J. R. G. S._ XXVI.
63-65; _Khan. Mm._ 203.)
