Riyadh, January 1942
Photo courtesy of the Facebook Page “The Old Bahrain“. This image is timeless. The buildings, the street, could have looked the same 500, 1000, 2000 years ago. Compare this picture with depictions of ancient Mesopotamian cities based on archaeological evidence.
That really does put into perspective how dramatically oil and the internal combustion engine changed the world in the twentieth century.
I love this photo! I hope we can have permission to use it in future Al Khamsa or Al-Itaq publications!
anytime, all DOW is for you (Jeanne) to use as you see fit
