{Alyah} is the large tail of a species of eastern sheep.
"This tail," says Dr. Russell, "is very broad and large,
terminating in a small appendix that turns back upon it. It
is of a substance between fat and marrow, and is not eaten
separately, but mixed with lean meat in many of their dishes,
and also often used instead of butter. A common sheep of
this sort, without the head, feet, skin, and entrails, weighs
about twelve or fourteen {Aleppo rotoloes,} (a {rotoloe} is
five pounds,) of which the tail is usually three {rotoloes}
or upwards; but such as are of the largest breed, and have
been fattened, will sometimes weigh about thirty {rotoloes,}
and the tails of these ten."
