neighborhood head Explanation: See page 163 of the first reference: "Each neighbourhood has a headman - 'aqil , the same name that may be given to some village leaders - who is in charge of all the affairs of his area and receives and distributes the monies for the various uses already mentioned." Also, the second reference explains: " In each tribe, authority is vested in a Sheikh and, under the Sheikh, in an Aqil (often also called Sheikh) as well as in tribal judges (Hakim, pl. Hukam), who have special knowledge of tribal customs. The Sheikh is a sort of primus inter pares, a mediator, in charge of solving disputes between tribe members and of representing the tribe vis-à-vis the other tribal entities, administrative authorities and other groups."
