View of two men in ...

View of two men in Wilfred Thesiger's travelling party standing next to a trilith monument near Mudayy. Two Bedouin tribesmen stand on the left in front of a trilith, a long row of upright stones. One of the men holds a rifle over his shoulder. In this region these triliths are found aligned with local watercourses, and are often found in conjunction with fire pits, a number of which are visible in the foreground. These triliths do not mark sites of actual graves and their specific purpose is still unknown.
