The search for traces of an old world takes an excavator now and again into strange corners of the new. Out of the ground he may extract treasures, or he may not—that is not our point here—out of the inhabitants and their strange ways he is sure, whether he likes it or not, to extract a great deal, and it is with this branch of an excavator's life we are now going to deal. We thought we were on the track of Phœnician remains and our interest in our work was like the fingers of an aneroid, subject to sudden changes, but at the same time we had perpetually around us a quaint, unknown world of the present, more pleasing to most people than anything pertaining to the past. The group of islands known as Bahrein (dual form of Bahr, i.e. two seas) lies in a bay of the same name in the Persian Gulf, about twenty miles off the coast of El Hasa in Arabia.

This book was released on 2018-12-05 with total page 803 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers invited contributions from active researchers to provide an up-to-date overview of the geological setting of the Red Sea. It discusses aspects ranging from historical information to modern research in the Red Sea, and presents findings from rapidly advancing, emerging fields. This semi-enclosed young ocean basin provides a unique opportunity to study the development of passive continental margins in order to examine the current status of that region. In addition to studies on the Sea itself, it includes those from related fields on the littoral zone. The book is of interest to geoscientists and non-specialists alike.

Download or read book Goodbye Saudi Arabia written by George Francis Collins and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book describes the good, bad, and ugly about an American's experiences living with his family in Saudi Arabia. Prince Sultan wanted to save money at the Jubail Project. Personnel were asked to reuse the morning tea bags again in the afternoon. Here are 5 short statements about events in the book: 1. After three months in jail, a lenient religious judge sentenced a male British secretary, caught jogging home from a wine tasting party, to a public whipping of 72 lashes at the busiest intersection in Al Khobar. 2. An ARAMCO executive's wife, caught at Dhahran Airport with her baby's mattress filled with marijuana, was given 48 hours to leave Saudi Arabia with her family. This was considered a very light sentence. 3. American companies sent borderline alcoholics to Saudi Arabia to dry out. Wow! What a mistake. 4. The religious police, mutawain, whipped Saudi women in public if they were not properly covered, and they threw paint on foreign women if their arms or legs were not fully covered. 5. The Saudi National Guardsman leaned into our car window and said, "If I had my way, I would throw all you Americans into the sea."

Download or read book The Life of the Red Sea Dhow written by Dionisius A. Agius and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-04-04 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few images are as evocative as the silhouette of the Arab dhow as, under full sail, it tacks to windward on glittering waters of Red Sea before moving across the face of the rising or setting sun. In this authoritative new book, Dionisius A. Agius, one of the foremost scholars of Islamic material culture, offers a lucid and wide-ranging history of the iconic dhow from medieval to modern times. Traversing the Arabian and African coasts, he shows that the dhow was central not just to commerce but to the vital transmission and exchange of ideas. Discussing trade and salt routes, shoals and wind patterns, spice harvest seasons and the deep and resonant connection between language, memory and oral tradition, this is the first book to place the dhow in its full and remarkable cultural contexts.
