BEDOUINS OF THE EMPTY QUARTER
Donald Powell Cole
This volume describes Bedouins, a tribal pastoral people in eastern Saudia
Arabia. This volume documents changes in their way of life, beginning in the
1930s
and continuing to the
1960s,
when this book originally appeared. The
Empty Quarter described here is a place inhabited by a people so thoroughly
devoted to their pastoral pursuits that they are referred to as nomads of the
nomads. To the
Ä1
Murrah and other camel-keeping
pastoralists,
theirs is a
rich and rewarding life. For either to survive, men and camels must live in
close symbiosis. The camels provide food, fiber, and transport; man provides
knowledge of available resources, of which the most precious are water and
the grasses that grow where rains have fallen. In this work, Donald Powell Cole
shows us that this existence more complex and intricate.
There is the complex knowledge of the desert itself, its varieties, moods, and
resources. Next, there is the knowledge of the camels, their needs, capacities,
and the peculiarities of each animal. These different kinds of knowledge must
be brought together to fully use, yet carefully conserve, scarce resources. As
important is the structuring of social life. The tribesmen must have a flexible
social system that enables the individual household to operate alone when the
environmental situation requires. This necessitates a pattern of independence
and equality.
The
Ä1
Murrah live according to ancient traditions, but life is not unchanging.
In
1932,
Saudi Arabia became a nation and intertribal raiding and warfare
was brought to an end. Cole highlights the adaptability of the
Ã1
Murrah as
the desert became increasingly invaded by motor transport and oil rigs. He
sees their experience as prototypical: man everywhere must attune his life
to the requirements of his economy. In a place like the Arabian Desert these
adjustments are most insistent. This work shows that even when these demands
of the external world pervade behavior, life can remain rich and rewarding.
