History

The Cut-Purse Kingdom was the thieves sanctuary in the ancient city of Zangabal, on the continent of Lemuria. The district was ruled by the Thieves' Guild.

Tracked by guards for thievery, Thongor was forced to hide in the Cut-Purse kingdom, where he was attacked by Thieves' Guild's members, who repelled him back into the street.

Notes

• The Cut-Purse Kingdom was created by Lin Carter in the story "Thieves of Zangabal".
  • Like other elements of the Thongor stories, the Cut-Purse Kingdom was possibly mirrored from the Maul, the thieves' districts in the Zamoran cities of Arenjun and Shadizar, created by Robert E. Howard in his Conan stories.
