 Long
Passages stopped in Aden and this was truly one of the most memorable and
enjoyable stops along our trip to the Middle East and Red Sea.
Overview:
The history, culture, economy, and population of Yemen have all
been influenced by the country's strategic location at the southern entrance of
the Red Sea�a crossroads of both ancient and modern trade and communications
routes. In the ancient world, the states that occupied the area known today as
Yemen controlled the supply of such important commodities as frankincense and
myrrh and dominated the trade in many other valuable items, such as the spices
and medicines of Asia. 1
