KUMISHAH

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 946 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: KRO-LAP
KUMISHAH , a
district
  and town in the province of
Isfahan
 , Persia. The
district
 , which has a length of 5C and a breadth of 16 m., and contains about 40 villages, produces much
grain
 . The town is situated on the high road from
Isfahan
  to Shiraz, 52 M. S. of the former. It was a flourishing city several miles in circuit when it was destroyed by the Afghans in 1722, but is now a decayed place, with crumbled walls and mouldering towers and a
population
  of barely 15,000. It has post and telegraph offices.
South
  of the city and extending to the
village
  Maksudbeggi, t6 m. away, is a level plain, which in 1835 (
February
  28) was the
scene
  of a
battle
  in which the army (2000 men, 16 guns)
of Mahommed Shah, commanded by Sir H. Lindsay-Bethune, routed the much superior combined forces (6000 men) of the shah's two rebellious uncles, Firman-Firma and Shuja es Saltana.
