The map
About this Mahd adh Dhahab map poster
Mahd adh Dhahab, the cradle of gold, lies in the Medina Region of western Saudi Arabia, deep in the rocky desert of the Hijaz. The name describes the place precisely: the town grew around a gold mine that was worked in antiquity and revived in modern times. On a map the mine workings and the residential streets sit side by side.
The surrounding terrain is dry and broken, with hills and wadis that decide where roads can go. The town itself is laid out in a fairly orderly way, with straight residential streets and blocks set against the irregular outline of the desert. Access roads wind off through the valleys, connecting the town to the wider region.
Some writers have suggested that the ancient mine here could be linked to the biblical mines of King Solomon, an idea that remains speculation but adds to the place's reputation. A Mahd adh Dhahab map poster presents the town simply: a clear street pattern, the industrial site beside it and the open desert all around.
