From the top of a mountain, looking down at the valley with the city of AlUla and palm groves surrounded by mountains going on as if forever
My crappy smartphoneβs camera does the view a great injustice, thereβs probably better pictures of it available online

The #Lihyanites based in Biblical Dedan ΧΧΧ (now al-Ula, Saudi Arabia) didnβt speak #Arabic. Arabic started appearing in #Hejaz after the #Nabateans annexed the #Kingdom of #Lihyan
My username πͺ πͺπͺ πͺπͺπͺ is in the Dedanitic script, which was used to write Arabic after #Arabization
