kajawah

1. (Middle East and South Asia, chiefly historical) A camel-borne pannier, litter, or cacolet.Examples: "Women of note trauell vpon Coozelbash-camels, each Camell loaded with two cages (or cajuaes as they call them) which hang on either side the beast."; "For the carriage of sick the camel is fairly well suited, the main difficulty being the kujawah, cradle or chair, the correct shape, size and weight of which can only be decided by actual experiment in hills as well as plains and under varying conditions."EastMiddleSouth-Asiahistorical

2. (Middle East, historical) Similar vehicles borne by other animals.Examples: "For men and women who suffer from being in the saddle for so many hours, there is a choice between the "kerjava" and the "takht-i-rawan." The kerjava, in its best appearance, takes the form of two very small gypsy tents made of light bands of wood, the top bent circular, and covered with shawls or carpets. In each of these tents a man or woman sits after the kerjavas have been slung, like panniers, across the saddle of a strong mule. In the kerjava one must sit cross-legged, or with one's feet hanging out."EastMiddlehistorical
