Riding down the Wady Damah to the southwest, Lieutenant Amir came upon a spring in a stone-revetted well near the left bank: this Ayn el-Bada' is not to be confounded with the Badi' water, or with the Bada plain, both of which we shall presently visit. A strew of broken quartz around it showed the atelier, and specimens of scattered fragments, glass and pottery, were gathered.
The palm-clump, where men camp, with its two date-trees towering over the rest, receded as it were. The dates form a kind of square with a sharp triangle to the south, upon the left bank of the thalweg, which overflows them during floods. The wells, inside and outside the enclosure, are nine; three stone-revetted, and the rest mere pits in the inchoate modern sandstone.
