Zuwarah
Zuwara ((アラビア語:زوارة), Berber: ''Tamurt n Wat Willul'')〔Mitchell (2007: 29, 195).〕 is a port city in northwestern Libya, with a population of around 80,000, famous for its beautiful beaches and abundant seafood. It is situated west of Tripoli and from the Tunisian border. It is the capital of the Nuqat al Khams district. Its population speaks Zuwara Berber, a Zenati Berber language.
==History==
The Amazigh tribe of ''Zwara'' was cited by al-Bakri in the 11th century, together with Louata, Lemaya, Nefusa, Mezata and Zouagha, as a tribe dwelling in the surroundings of the Gulf of Gabès.
The settlement was first mentioned by the traveller al-Tidjani in the years 1306-1309 as ''Zwara al-saghirah'' ("Little Zwarah").〔"Voyage du Scheikh Et-Tidjani dans la régence de Tunis pendant les années 706, 707 et 708 de l'hégire (1306-1309)", transl. by M. A. Rousseau, ''Journal Asiatique'' 1853, p. 121.〕 In a Catalan sailing manual (1375) it was called as Punta dar Zoyara. The town is mentioned by Leo Africanus in the 16th century. It later served as the western outpost of Italian Libya (1912–43), being the terminus of the now-defunct Italian Libya Railway from Tripoli to the east. Its artificial harbour shelters a motorized fishing fleet. Cereals, dates, and esparto grass (used to make cordage, shoes, and paper) are local products.
