Toukan
The Tuqan clan (Arabic: طوقان, romanized: Ṭūqān; also variously romanized as Toukan, Touqan, Tukan, and Tokan) is a prominent Palestinian and Jordanian political and business family. During the Ottoman era, they dominated the political and socio-economic spheres in Nablus and extended their influence to al-Salt. During that era, they were the only household that came close to establishing centralized rule over Jabal Nablus. Over the course of the 18th and 19th centuries the Tuqan family held the title of mutasallim (tax collector/governor) of Nablus longer than any other local family.
