Dahaminah

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Dahaminah are a minor tribe from Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). They originally inhabited the area of Wadi Qor.[1] At the turn of the 19th century there was a population of some 150 Dahaminah co-habiting with a number of members of the Manai'i tribe in the settlements along the Wadi Qor.[2]
