Situated in the southwest of the Arabian Peninsula, the Republic of Yemen has considerable variation in its physical landscape and climatic conditions, ranging from the Rub al-Khali (or "Empty Quarter") desert region, to fertile mountains and plateaus fed by twice-yearly monsoons. Yemen's remarkable architecture including palaces, mosques, and multi-storied mud and brick houses is one of the country's most celebrated characteristics. The strait of Bab el Mandeb, located at Yemen's southwestern tip, links the Red Sea with the Indian Ocean. The country's ancient kingdoms, built on the spice and incense trades, used its strategic ports in concert with overland camel caravans to give Yemen a historically important role in Middle Eastern trade. The coastal town of Al Mukha became a major force in the coffee trade, and it is from there that the word "mocha" was derived and applied to coffee.

Home Page Articles Spoken Books ... this site Search for: 62 readers online now Printer-friendly version Email this article to a friend A History of Modern Yemen by Paul Dresch Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2000. 285 pp. $59.95 (paper, $19.95) Middle East Quarterly June 2001 Reviewed by Daniel Pipes Dresch, an Oxford lecturer, retells the twentieth-century history of Yemen with a rare panach, making the usually dry history of imams, strongmen, and backwardness nearly a pleasure to traverse. Typical of his style is a sly admission in the preface of his temptation to replace the publisher's dry-as-dust title with a more exotic Yemeni-style one ("The Camel Trotting Heavy Laded with News of Hadramawt, Sanaa and Aden"). Dresch a cultural anthropologist, shows a skilled hand at history, even as he lards it with anecdotes, poetry, and newspaper quotations. His history goes lightly on themes, but if it has one, it would be how the borders invented by the imperial overlords a century back have acquired ever-more reality and emotional resonance with time. "Yemen," like "Scandinavia" or "Syria," was through the ages a geographic expression refering to a distinct cultural unit; like those other names, it did not have a specific political reality. "Much of Yemen's history through the twentieth century connects with efforts to form that state, which was finally established in 1990." When that unified policy did come into existence, Dresch judges it thus: "The state turns out to be much like other states. The country remains singular."

Aden - an ancient trading centre T he Republic of Yemen, at the south-west corner of the Arabian Peninsula, has traded by land and sea since ancient times. Mid-way between Europe and the Far East, Aden lies on a major world trading route through the Suez Canal. It is one of the largest natural harbours in the world with an area of about 70 km2 of sheltered water surrounded by Jebel Shamsan, Khormaksar, and the shore which extends to the hills of Little Aden. The Port of Aden consists of the Inner Harbour, the Oil Harbour serving Aden Refinery and the anchorage and approach channels of he Outer harbour. T he City of Aden draws its vitality from the Port of Aden. The story of Aden as a trading centre stretches back over 3000 years. Marco Polo and Ibn Batuta visited it in the 11th and 12th Centuries. In the 1800's, Aden grew as ship fuelling port, holding stocks of coal and water supplies for the early steamers. Port services expanded after the Suez Canal opened in 1869 as Aden grew to become one of the busiest ship bunkering and tax-free-shopping and trading ports in the world by the 1950's. Barges took cargo between ships berthed in the Inner Harbour and the wharves. Coastal vessels and dhows carried cargoes to and from regional ports. I n the 1970's, with the Suez Canal closed until 1975, Aden declined under intense competition from new ports in the region and changes in the patterns of trade. New quays were urgently needed at Aden to serve modern cargo demands. These were built at the end of the 1980's at the "Ma'alla Terminal". After over 150 years of commercial activity, Aden finally had the capacity and equipment to handle all types of dry cargo at deep alongside berths served by modern container cranes.

In the restful atmosphere of meeting rooms in private houses, hardworking Yemeni men gather during the afternoon break to chew qat and recount vivid local and family histories. ral histories are at least as much a matter of presentation as they are recitations of absolute truths. The presenter uses devices to add authenticity to his account, slant the circumstances to deliver a message, or invest events with renewed significance. I knew this intuitively but did not recognize the power of narrative performance until engaged in anthropological field research in 'Amran, Yemen. Until the early 1970s virtually all houses, government offices, and mosques were inside the medina, the high-walled, gated city. Just outside the walls were a smaller enclosed village and the market. The 1962 revolution and ensuing eight-year civil war that brought an end to North Yemen's theocratic rule ushered in many changes. This was obvious in the brisk pace with which homes, shops, and mosques were being built to accommodate new settlers and those relocating outside the old city. By 1978, when I began a nineteen-month stay there, the town's prerevolution population had doubled to about six thousand. The socioeconomic and political impacts of these changes were the focus of my research project.

Yemen by Sarah Szymkowicz Ancient History Muslim Rule The Yemenite Jews of Today Culture ... Men's Clothing Ancient History The Yemenite Jews have a unique history that distinguish them from Jews in other countries in the Arab world. The way they migrated to Yemen is different. The relationship they had to the Arab rulers and the Arab populous was different. Also the Jewish culture that developed in Yemen is very different from any other Jewish community in the world. We do not know exactly how Jews came to settle in Yemen. According to Yemenite tradition, a group of well-to-do Jews left Jerusalem after they heard Jeremiah predict the destruction of the Temple in 629 BCE, 42 years before the destruction occurred. Historians believe that King Solomon's trading and naval networks brought Jews to Yemen from Judea around 900 BCE . The first evidence of Jewish presence in Yemen can be traced to the 3rd century CE In the early part of Jewish settlement, the Jewish presence in Yemen was very strong. The Himyaties who ruled at this time had a large number of people who converted to Judaism. Sometime after the 3rd century, the Himyarite ruling family converted to

Handbook History On May 22, 1990, Yemen was unified and a draft constitution was approved in May of 1991. This was the latest historical event in the long history of this fascinating country located on the southwest corner of the Arabian Peninsula. Sana'a, the capital, is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. Throughout the Yemen, Stone Age people left evidence of their occupation from 400,000BC. Bronze Age people from 2000BC had developed many agricultural settlements throughout the area. Foremost of these was near Marib where a huge dam was built to irrigate the terraced fields found here. The Marib Dam is considered the greatest technical structure of antiquity. You may see some of the ruins of this structure which collapsed around 600AD and which is nearby to a new dam serving the same purpose today. The Yemenis consider themselves the original Arabs from whom all the other Arabs are descended. Indeed there seems to be evidence of this. In ancient Yemen, also called Southern Arabia, there were five principal kingdoms: the Saba, Hadramawt, Ausan, Qataban and Main. Saba was the oldest, most important and most powerful. Saba in Hebrew is "Sheba". Thus the fabled Queen of Sheba came from Saba. Queens in Arabia were common, and both the Bible and Quran refer to the Queen of Sheba.

This is part of a series of interrelated projects in archaeology, geology and paleoecology that are studying the history of an area in the remote Hadramawt region of Yemen, on the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula. This research is coordinated through the Roots of Agriculture in Southern Arabia (RASA) program, headed by Dr. Joy McCorriston, the Yemeni Ministry of Antiquties, and the American Institute for Yemeni Studies . Funding for this portion of the project is primarily from the U.S. National Science Foundation While other investigators are concentrating on the abundant archaeological or geological deposits, the role of the USGS researcher, Dr. Kenneth Cole, is to reconstruct the past vegetation and climate of the area. Plant fossils have been found in the abundant middens left in the steep limestone cliffs by rock hyraxes (
