	History of Yemen - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		The Aden hinterland and Hadhramaut to the east formed the remainder of what would become South Yemen and was not administered directly by Aden but were tied to Britain by treaties of protection.
		The eastern protectorate consisted of the three Hadhramaut states (Qu'aiti State of Shihr and Mukalla, Kathiri State of Seiyun, Mahra State of Qishn and Socotra) with the remaining states comprising the west.
		Economic development was largely centred in Aden, and while the city flourished partly due to the discovery of crude oil on the Arabian Peninsula in the 1930s, the states of the Aden Protectorate stagnated.

		The Persians appear to have been in Hadhramaut, but the only clear evidence of their presence is at Husn al Urr, a fort between Tarim and Qabr Hud.
		For several centuries Hadhramaut was ruled, from time to time, by governors sent from Sana’a, but their effectiveness was very variable and their writ seldom seems to have extended beyond the main valley.
		The Hadhramaut, despite being part of the communist-aligned PDRY continued to live to a great extent on remittances from abroad, which now meant mainly Saudi Arabia.

	British-Yemeni Society: Civic education project in the Hadhramaut, by Fida Nasrallah
		Hadhramaut was chosen as a region for historical reasons.
		The general objectives of the project were to encourage voter participation in the elections; to develop voter awareness of the democratic process; and to improve women’s understanding of the electoral process.
		The way forward was to commission an attitudinal survey targeted at both men and women in order to assess the extent of people’s knowledge of the electoral process in general and the 27th April election in particular, and design and implement the voter education campaign in its light.

	Conservation Project
		By this, we mean an active desire to engage with the creativity of the community and its history; to explore the urban and social framework of Tarim and thr Hadhramaut Valley in its entirety; and to discover the multiple levels of meaning of place.
		Tarim and the other cities and towns of the Hadhramaut do not face the same scale of demographic pressures as many other historic cities in the region, but Bianca’s comments on social disintegration and the new standards in education are relevant to the Yemeni case.
		Especially pertinent are his comments on the privileges associated to new styles of urbanism and architecture and the impact of economic transitions that have accompanied transnational labor movements.

		Hadhramaut in Southern Arabia is the country of origin of one of the most significant Third World diasporas.
		The integration of Hadhramaut into the British sphere of influence in the late 19th century and the establishment of closer control through advisory treaties in the 1930s cannot be understood unless the economic, political and social ties with India, South East Asia and East Africa are investigated.
		Some fragmentary studies of Hadhramaut and the Hadhramis in various parts of the world exist, but there has never been any integrated overview of the process as a whole in both Hadhramaut and the main destinations to which emigrants went.

		Tarim, along with Seyoun and Shibam, is one of the three major cities in the Hadhramaut Valley, an area formerly located in the People's Democratic Republic of Yemen.
		In addition, although the walled city of Shibam and Wadi Hadhramaut were designated a World Heritage Site in 1982, the region is succumbing from development pressures and the resulting incursion of concrete buildings along the paved roads and commercial districts.

		The majority of these Arabs are from the Hadhramaut region of south-eastern Yemen, which was ruled until 1967 by the British as part of the East Aden Protectorates.
		In the eyes of Western media, the Hadhramaut is now and for the foreseeable future bin Laden country (his family migrated from there to the Hijaz, not to Singapore or Indonesia).
		Some have sent a son back to the Hadhramaut to be raised there and taught in a prestigious religious school, an old practice that has picked up again since the Marxist government of South Yemen was displaced in 1990.

		The inquiry into the attack on the destroyer USS Cole has led investigators to a mountainous region on the eastern border with Saudi Arabia, as well as to links with Somalia.
		Yemeni officials searched a house near the harbor where the bomb was assembled, and found a document that originated in Hadhramaut, a region about 500 miles northeast of Aden along the border with Saudi Arabia.
		Freeh praised the Yemenis for identifying two safe houses a few miles across the bay from where the USS Cole was attacked, as well as the car, the trailer and the documents linking two men who lived at one of the houses to Hadhramaut, a distant region on the border with Saudi Arabia.

		Shabwa was for Philby 'the romantic land of Sheba.' Sir Percy Cox, taking the chair at Miss Stark's lecture, had remarked that the stretch of the incense route from the Hadhramaut to Najran was 'about the only piece of the Arabian Peninsula that is entirely unexplored.' This was enough for Philby.
		Though he was by now in a hurry, he was so annoyed with Lake that, when he got back to Shabwa and found that desert gossip had spread news of his visit and that shaikhs farther south had invited him to call, he determined to do so.
		They sent administrators and levies and airplanes to north and east—Ingrams to the Hadhramaut, Hamilton to eject the Yemenis from Shabwa, squadron leaders to map from the air and pounce on tribesmen out of the blue.

		This is linked to the careful analysis of the impact of imperial rule both in the lands of the diaspora and in Hadhramaut in chapters focussing on state- and institution-formation.
		Developments in Hadhramaut are regarded as a prism for the development of modernity in the wider Muslim and Indian Ocean worlds which was adapted to local conditions and needs.

		For centuries, the people of the Hadhramaut region, located in South Yemen, built sophisticated and aesthetically breathtaking houses from the only locally available material, mud.
		In the early 1990s, the borders of South Yemen were opened as a result of the end of the Yemen civil war thereby allowing travelers, including filmmaker Caterina Borelli, to visit this remote and long-forgotten region and view its uniquely beautiful architecture.
		The ARCHITECTURE OF MUD will be preceded by a slide presentation of landscapes and portraits taken during 20 years of travels in the Middle East by renowned Palestinian photographer, George Azar.
