Treasure Hunting
We made it back to the enchanting little village in the oasis; had some more time to explore and take photos. We also came out of it with a bit of a souvenir, which we're quite happy with. See that broken water jug at Ruth's feet? The other pieces were nearby, and now it's reassembled (minus the bottom, unfound) and sitting comfortably in our apartment. The fragment sitting beside it appears to be from the rim of a pot, but there were, unfortunately, no other pieces of that. The tables behind them are from India and were purchased in Old Sana'a.

Funny how that happens, isn't it? Now of course Yemen's heritage laws forbid anything over fifty years old from leaving the country, so WE'RE GOING TO PUT IT BACK BEFORE WE LEAVE (Wink; Nudge).
