== History == ʿAydhab was occupied by the Beja before its conquest by Fatimid Egypt in the 10th century. It was located about 20 km north of the modern port Halaib. Abulfeda gave its coordinates as 21°N, 58°E: it is actually located at 22°19'N, 36°28'E. The site was identified in January 1896 by the English explorer Theodore Bent.
