Mak Dizdar
Mehmedalija "Mak" Dizdar (17 October 1917 – 14 July 1971) was a Bosnian poet. His poetry combined influences from the Bosnian Christian culture, Islamic mysticism and cultural remains of medieval Bosnia, and especially the stećci. His works ''Kameni spavač (Stone Sleeper)'' and ''Modra rijeka (Blue River)'' are probably the most important Bosnian poetic achievements of the 20th century.

Mahk
The Tanna ground dove (''Pampusana ferruginea''), also known as Forster's dove of Tanna, is an extinct dove species. Its taxonomic affiliation is uncertain but at its first scientific discussion by Johann Georg Wagler in 1829 it was classified into the genus Gallicolumba (which includes ground doves and bleeding-hearts); its closest relative is possibly the Santa Cruz ground dove. It was endemic to the Pacific island of Tanna, Vanuatu (formerly the New Hebrides). Forster records a native name ''mahk'', almost certainly from the Kwamera language. Taxonomy The taxonomic authority is often given as Wagler (1829). However, although Forster's ''Descriptiones…'' was finally printed in 1844, some time after Wagler's treatise, the original description was written in 1775 and thus predates Wagler. This species was formerly in the genus ''Alopecoenas'' Sharpe, 1899, but the name of the genus was changed in 2019 to ''Pampusana'' Bonaparte, 1855 as this name has priority. Description ...

(Scarecrow Press, 2013), p. 293.Richard Andrew Lobban Jr., ''Historical Dictionary of Ancient and Medieval Nubia'' (Scarecrow Press, 2004), p. . is a title formerly used in the Sudan, meaning "ruler" or "king". There are three theories of its origins. It may be a corruption of the Arabic word ''malik'' (pl. ''mulūk''), meaning "king";Jay L. Spaulding, "The Fate of Alodia", ''Transafrican Journal of History'' 4, 1 (1974): 27–40. it may descend from Meroitic ''mk'', meaning "God", appropriate to the divine kingship practised in the Sudan; or, as E. A. Wallis Budge proposed, it may be derived from Ge'ez መከሐ (''mkḥ''), meaning "to be glorious", making it an Ethiopian import. The territory ruled by a ''makk'' may be called a "makkdom" or "mekdom" in English. The title ''makk'' was used ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
