Zamboula

A major trading center situated in the Kharamun Desert. When Stygian invaders first came to it, it was a small oasis. The Stygians built it into a great city, peopling it with their own citizens, transplanted Shemites, and Kushite slaves. Turan later conquered it and in Conan's time was the westernmost outpost of the Turanian Empire, ruled by a satrap. Zamboula lay within a ring of oases and served caravans from all directions.
