Landmarks of the Ancient Kingdom of Saba

The Sabaean civilization developed from the 1st millennium BCE to 630 CE, establishing control over incense trade routes throughout the Arabian Peninsula.

The archaeological structures demonstrate the technical capabilities of the Sabaean people through architectural elements, water management systems, and monumental buildings.
