Ath Thaqab
Ath Thaqab is a settlement in Qatar, located in the municipality of Ash Shamal. It is close to the settlements of Al Ruwaydah[1] and Al Khuwayr,[2] the latter of which is only 3 miles away. Thaqab Fort is located in the vicinity of the settlement.[1]
Archaeological evidence has shown that Thaqab has been inhabited since the 10th century.[1] In J.G. Lorimer's Gazetteer of the Persian Gulf, it is stated that in 1908, Ath Thaqab accommodated a well from which the inhabitants of the nearby settlement of Al Khuwayr would fetch their water. The well was described as being approximately 35 feet deep and yielding good water.[2]
