AD 800 Arab Map
This is an overview of Arab civilization spread until AD 800-900 , I also have created a simple heightmap from Nasa photo shoots and convert it using Photoshop and L3DT.
What Is Saracen's Land ?
It is a collection of stories collected over many centuries by various authors, translators and scholars in various countries. These collections of tales trace their roots back to ancient Arabia and Yemen, ancient India, ancient Asia Minor, ancient Persia (especially the Sassanid Hazār Afsān Persian: هزار افسان, lit. Thousand Tales), ancient Egypt, ancient Mesopotamian Mythology, ancient Syria, and medieval Arabic folk stories from the Caliphate era. Though the oldest Arabic manuscript dates from the fourteenth century, scholarship generally dates the collection's genesis to somewhere between AD 800-900.
The tales themself consists in the volumes:
- Volume I covers Story Of King Shahryar and His Brother
- Volume II: Nur al-Din Ali and the Damsel Anis Al-Jalis
- Volume III: The Tale of Sultan Omar Bin al-Nu'uman and His Sons Sharrkan and Zau al-Makan
