The Khān at al-Sukkariyya
Probably in 1317 a charitable road-inn, a khān, was erected at Sukkariyya, a site that catered to the Cairo-Damascus road at least since the early Islamic period.

Following a thorough search of the archives during doctoral research, the author found the original documentation relating to the long-forgotten i…
