Qara (قارة) or Cara or Qārat Umm eṣ-Ṣugheir or Qarat Umm el-Sugheir is one of the inhabited oases of Egypt, with a population of 363 Berbers (census 2006-11-11), though of a darker complexion than the inhabitants of Siwa Oasis. This oasis is often disregarded when it comes to counting the number of Egyptian oases as it is very small compared to the others. In local folklore if a newborn arrives, an elder will die shortly after, thus keeping the population constant.
