The Bujat is everywhere set in a regular rim of mountains. It is distant a ride of two hours, and we have now seen it for three marches. A little south of east yawns the gorge-mouth of the Wady Nejd, the upper course of the Aba'l-Gezaz: a jagged black curtain, the Jebel Dausal, forms its southern jaw.
We are now at a Bada <Arabic> which fulfils all the conditions required by the centre and head-quarters of "Thamuditis." The site of the Bujat Bada, "the Wide Plain of Bada," as it is distinguished by the Arabs, represents, topographically speaking, a bulge in the Wady Nejd, before it becomes the Wady Abu Daumah, between the Shafah Mountains to the east and the Tihamah range seawards.
