Parelduiken - Parelduiken
Pearls (dana), not oil, once formed the basis of Kuwait's wealth. Now, annual pearl diving festivals help
today's generation experience the excitement and hardship that their forefathers faced. Such festivals are a tribute to men who dedicated their lives to the pearling industry.
Vissen
Besides zubaidi and hamout, fish of almost every conceivable shape and variety in the waters off Kuwait are
there for the taking. The range of fish includes six different types of shark, two types of barracuda, stinging
and non-stinging ray fish, four varieties of mackerel and tuna, and an array of soles, breams, snappers, rock
and cat fish, flounders, cobias, puffers and needlefish. You can go fishing with sophisticated long casting
rods, from prominent rocks and the ends of piers using simple poles, lines and hooks or wire baskets to catch
fry from the water off the beaches using nets held by several persons, from boats using trawls and multi
-hooked lines. Many of the experts use home-made equipment. Both simple and sophisticated fishing tackle is available in the shops.

Kuwait is a sailor's paradise. The seas offshore is seldom really rough, but there is nearly always a moderate
breeze. Boats range from small sailing dinghies to large yachts. The Yatch Club has a marina with 300 fully
serviced berths. Many of the sea clubs have marinas and organise sailing activities. The Kuwait Offshore Sailing Association organises races, including one from Kuwait to Bahrain.

Geschiedenis van Kuweit
Archaeological finds on Failaka, the largest of Kuwait's nine islands, suggests it was a trading post at the time
of the ancient Sumerians. Failaka appears to have continued to serve as a market for approximately 2,000
years, and was known to the ancient Greeks. Despite its long history as a market and sanctuary for traders,
Failaka appears to have been abandoned as a permanent settlement in the 1st century A.D. Kuwait's modern
history began in the 18th century with the founding of the city of Kuwait by the Uteiba, a subsection of the Anaiza tribe, who are believed to have traveled north from Qatar.

Kuwait: The Growth of a Historic Identity - B.J. Slot (Editor)
The Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990 - 1 placed the questions of Kuwait's origins and statehood under the
spotlight as never before, making them a matter of pressing concern both for the Kuwaitis themselves and for
the world at large. During the 1990s a great deal of scholarly effort has been focused on the particular
circumstances of Kuwait's emergence as a state, and as a result much new material has been brought to
light. This series of papers, presented at Peterhouse College, Cambridge, on 19 May 1995 by five leading
scholars in the field, explores the historical, political and social processes which governed the birth, survival, prosperity and ultimate sovereignty of this unique Arab maritime polity.
