Abstract :
To date, extensive research has been carried out concerning three of the principal northern pilgrim routes of the Arabian Peninsula, namely Kufa – Mecca, Egypt – Mecca, and Syria – Mecca, whereas fieldwork aimed specifically at examining the southern routes in their entirety has hitherto been lacking. The most significant of the southern routes is the Yemeni Highland Pilgrim Route, and this has been the subject of a piece of research recently completed by the present writer.
