The monograph History of Hadramawt in Antiquity, which opens the series History of Hadramawt

Ycmenite multidisciplinary expedition in 1983-1991 and by the Russian multidisciplinary expedition in
the Republic o f Yemen in 2003-2005 and 2007. The volume is illustrated with photographs and maps. PDF-files
