غَبِيطٌ

A [camel's saddle of the kind called] رَحْل, (S, Msb,) for women, (S,) upon which the [vehicle called] هَوْدَج is bound: (S, Msb:) or an elegant kind of رَحْل, depressed in its middle: (TA:) or a vehicle like the pads (أُكُف [in the CK, erroneously, اَكُفّ]) of the [species of camels called] بَخَاتِىّ, (K,) which is tented over with a [framework such as is called] شِجَاز, and is for women of birth: (Az, TA:) or, as some say, of which the pad (قَتَب) is made not in the [usual] make of pads (أَقْتَاب): (TA:) or a رحل of which the pad (قَتَب) and the [curved wooden parts called] أَحْنَاء are one [i. e., apparently, conjoined]: (K:) plural غُبُطٌ. (S, Msb, K.) The plural is also applied to the pieces of wood in camels' saddles; and to such are likened Persian bows, (S, TA,) because of their curvature. (IAth.)

[Hence,] (assumed tropical:) Depressed land or ground: (S, K:) or a wide and even tract of land of which the two extremities are elevated, (K,) like the form of the camel's saddle so called, of which the middle is depressed: (TA:) also (assumed tropical:) a channel of water furrowed in a tract such as is termed قُفّ, (K, TA,) like a valley in width, having between it and another such channel meadows and herbage: plural as above. (TA.)
