Feridhoo (Alif Alif Atoll) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Feridhoo (Alif Alif Atoll)
Feridhoo (Dhivehi: ފެރިދޫ) is one of the inhabited islands of Ari Atoll and it is located on its eastern fringe. It belongs to the Alif Alif Atoll administrative division. ==Historical facts== In centuries past, two male African slaves who had been bought by the kings on their Hajj trips to Mecca were formally released from slavery and were settled in this island. One of them was called Sangoru. He had been working for years at the palace in Malé before the ailing king released him in order to gain merit in the afterlife. The freeing of slaves before the death of the owner was traditionally a common practice among the very high nobility in the Maldives. Now there are many families on Feridhoo and in neighboring Maalhos who can trace their descendency to those two African ancestors.
