Arabian Nights like culture

     Hi,
     
     
     I know Gloranthan cultures has many specificities compared to 
     historical Earth, but for ease of explaining those cultures to 
     beginners, it is often useful to refer to Earth like culture.
     
     So, is there any areas on Glorantha were the culture would have 
     analogies with the Arabian Night Culture  (Aladdin, Sinbad, ...) ?
     
     
     Thanks.
