Wadi Mukattab
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The Wadi Mukattab (Arabic for "Valley of Writing"), also known as the Valley of Inscriptions, is a wadi on Egypt's Sinai Peninsula near St Catherine's Monastery. It links the main road in the Wadi Feiran with the Wadi Maghera's ancient turquoise mining area.[1]
The wadi is named after its valley's many petroglyphs. Nabataean[2] and Greek[3] inscriptions are abundant.
