Ayl was a major stopping center for camel caravans in the Edomite highlands. Here there was water and fodder.
Special thanks to Fawzi Abudanh for this great picture taken on November 2003. Fawzi was conducting field work in the region of Udhruh for his postgraduate studies. The photograph shows the traditional village which was evidently built on the ancient site. A Roman castellum may have existed here.
