Abstract | ||||
This research aims to study and publish a new variety of stone structures for prehistoric Era that have not been published before in the ―Halayeb and Shalateen‖ area in a documented scientific way, and to compare them with their counterparts in Egypt and the Arabian Peninsula, where many types of stone buildings spread in that important Egyptian region south of Eastern Egypt, which proved beyond any doubt the human settlement of these areas since prehistoric era and the practice of various construction works using the resources provided by the local environment. The comparative study also confirmed its cultural continuity with the civilizations of the Arabian Peninsula, especially the civilizations of Yemen and Saudi Arabia, which are located on the opposite coast of the Red Sea, through two routes, one of which is land through Sinai Peninsula and then Jordan and northern Saudi Arabia, and the other is maritime through Bab Al-Mandab strait across the coast of the Indian Ocean. Then Yemen. | ||||
