| Ancient Trade Routes of the Arab World |
|  |
| |
 Travel to three of the ancient world’s most treasured destinations, where wealth and power converged to create important commercial hubs. Travel from Zanzibar, where the Omani Sultan presided over a vast trading network of ivory, spices and slaves, to Dhofar, Oman, where frankincense was king, and then on to Ghadames, Libya, one of the oldest pre-Saharan cities, which became the trans-Saharan caravan junction for all of North Africa. Part of the multivolume Arab World DVD Series. A Teacher's Guide is included and available online. |
