Immediately after Arabia Felix, is located a long coast and a gulf for more than 2000 stades length. ........ Beyond the end of the gulf is located Kane, another coastal port of call, which belongs to the Frankincense-bearing country, where reigns Eleazos. Nearby lie two uninhabited islands, the island of the Birds, and Troullas, in a distance of 120 stades from Kane. Deep in the inland, is located Saubatha, the capital of the kingdom, where resides the king. All the frankincense produced throughout the country is transported to Kane that serves as the main storehouse. Based on the text of the Periplus of the Erythraean Sea (or Periplus of the Red Sea), Prof. Megalommatis analyzes the tremendous historical significance of Hadhramaut, which was named the ‘Frankincense-bearing Country’ in the Antiquity.
