They store it for their needs from barley, millet, sorghum, cowpeas, and lentils. It is a very large river that can only be crossed by boats. On it, as we have said, are many villages and settlements of Abyssinia. Among these villages are Mire Jubaybah, Falajun, Batta, and all the other villages of the interior. As for the coastal cities, they are distinguished by what is brought to them from Yemen by sea. Among the coastal cities of Abyssinia are the city of Zayla, Manqabah, Aqant, and Bati, and to what is connected to them from the settlements of the villages of Berbera. All these villages are sustained by what their inhabitants obtain from fish, milk, and other grains that they bring from their villages on the banks of the aforementioned river. The city of Al-Naj'ah is a small city on the bank of the aforementioned river. Its inhabitants are farmers who cultivate millet and barley, by which they trade and by which they live. The trade of this town is little, and their useful crafts for its people are little. Fish are abundant and easy to catch, and milk is plentiful. Between this city and the city of Markadah, previously mentioned, it is 9 days downstream on the river, and upstream, more than 10 days, as much as possible. Their boats are small, and their wood is scarce. After these two cities, to the south, there are no settlements, nor anything to rely on. Between the city of Al-Naj'ah and the city of Junaybinah are 8 stages, and similarly between Markadah and Junaybinah. Junaybinah, as we have described, is in the wilderness of Manfal'ah. Its inhabitants drink from wells, and what is in them dries up most of the time, so much so that it cannot be found. The inhabitants of this town are predominantly miners of silver and gold, and this is the majority of their livelihood and most of their sustenance. These mines are in Jabal Murubis, which is 4 days from the city of Jubaybinah. From this mine, and on this river, the people of Abyssinia cultivate, and most of Abyssinia, and most.
