The island of Meroe

Hi Qoais,

There are many small islands in the Red Sea, but not any has a breadth of 40 km (200 furlongs) and all are desertic without any springs. Particularly in the Dahlak archipelago in front of Asmara in Erythrea, antique tanks for water were found. So I maintain my opinion that all lands of East Africa delimited by rivers facing Arabia and Indian ocean were named islands by ancient authors.
