The third of the u eight kingdoms » of Persia according to Polo, who mentions it between KurdistAn and niistân. It is of course the Luristàn, or country of the Lur, in Western Iran. On Luristan, cf. Y, I, 85; LS, 200-202, 244-245; El, s.v. « Lur » and u Luristàn », by MINORSKY. From Polo the « eight kingdoms », and among them «Lor», have passed into Fra Mauro's map (HALLBERG, 318). a 4 Lo-êrh (= Lor) appears on the Chinese map of c. 1330 and is named in the corresponding list of YS, 63, 16 b (cf. Br, II, 127).
Polo's « Lor » and the « Lo-êrh » of the Chinese are in absolute agreement with the Persian pronunciation, which is Lor. And Polo is also justified in saying only u Lor », although he uses for instance « Cielstan » and « Curdistan ». In mediaeval times, a distinction was made between « Little Lor » and « Great Lor », but the name « Luristan » for u Little Lor » does not go farther back than the 16th cent.
