Additional Information
Sheykh Obeyd, Stud Bk Ref: Vol 15 Pg 526. Bought by Blunts in 1878. Recent research based on original Arabic sources, including the Abbas Pasha Manuscript and the hujjah (certificate) of her close female-line relative Meshura, has confirmed that Basilisk belonged to the Saqlawi Marighi strain, a sub-branch of Saqlawi Ubayri , not Saqlawi Jidrani as previously assumed. She was acquired from the Ibn Dirri family of the Gmassah tribe (part of the Sba'ah of Anazah), and her strain identity has now been firmly reclassified.
