El Hamool

Northern Africa

El Hamool is one of the largest towns in the Kafr El Sheikh Governorate, in the north of Egypt, and it lies in the northern part of the governorate. Its name comes from a plant known locally as el hamool, which is usually planted in Lake Burullus near Baltim. The town is therefore named for a plant tied to the lake shore of that part of the governorate. It is included among the cities and towns of Egypt, and its size within its governorate is the main fact recorded for it by the English Wikipedia article.
