Somewhere on the Persian Gulf coast in ancient Arabia there once existed
the ancient city of Gerrha. The bustling trading post attracted merchants
from all over the world. It was one of the most important points on the
Incense trade route, which was a network of ancient sea and land trading
routes that stretched from Mediterranean ports across Egypt and Levant
through the Northeastern parts of Africa and Arabia to India. In Gerrha,
merchants traded exotic goods coming from India like sandalwood, silk, and
spices with regionally produced frankincense and myrrh and goods from
Northeastern Africa like Gold and Somali incense. By the second century AD,
trade in the region had completely died out due to expansion of alternate
trade routes and trade methods, and with it the ancient city of Gerrha was
once again reclaimed by the desert sands, never to be found again.
