Comment on Jazirat al-Hamra: Ghost Town or a Crumbling Piece of History? by Faisal Choudhary

Hello Nadia,

I am a final year student of Civil Engineering and i am doing a research on Jazirat Al Hamra. While, doing a desktop research I came across your blog.

I have read your whole blog several times and I find it very informative.

There are couple of confusions which I am facing currently, hope you could explain me those:

1. You have mentioned that the village was created in 14th Century, do you have any authentication for that?

2. “..abandoned, and has remained uninhabited and neglected since 1968…” again any authentication.

3. Za’ab tribe & Hadhr, could you explain more about them. As what was their origin and where did they go from here.

Hope you will help me in my project. And please accept my apologies for bothering you.

Waiting for an early reply.

Regards,

This is the first time i’d been to some “HAUNTED” / “EERIE” place which is found on my arrival in nothing other than abandoned ruins. This place is right among people, the city. Half of this place is converted as archaelogical site which infact was the right decission made by the government as it only shows us simple lifestyle of our ancestors who had lived amidst happiness, peace and soberness. Definetely when you enter into any of these houses you’ll feel strange stuffiness / heavy to breathe that I and my friend had felt and its not just one but all of them. Onething i found really creepy was human bones (by its size and feel looks that of a young child). I wish they preserve this place further nicely, some re-modification and they could also include sound and light show.
