This city gave name to the district of Gaulonitis, now called
Djolan, which comprises the plain to south of Djedour or

the Nahar Aweired, by which it is separated from the district
of Erbad, and the Sheriat el Mandhour, which separates it from

territory of Feik, and on the north-west by Djebel Heish, or
