"The frankincense trees of Wadi Dawkah and the remains of the caravan
oasis of Shisr/Wubar and the affiliated ports of Khor Rori and Al-Baleed
vividly illustrate the trade in frankincense that flourished in this
region for many centuries, as one of the most important trading
activities of the ancient and medieval world." -http://whc.unesco.org
