The legendary Queen Eshora, it is said, punished the jinn who were harassing her people by imprisoning them in one of the caves above Qasira, carving the mystical eight-pointed star into the rock to seal them in. She sentenced them to haul water from the depths of the earth, feeding the springs that gush forth from the rocks and which for centuries have irrigated the date gardens of Qasira and its surrounding villages.
