The Land of the Queen of Sheba:
The Bible tells how the Queen of Sheba visited Jerusalem. For 30 centuries
she has inspired a variety of legends. If she did exist she almost certainly
came from Southern Arabia, where, in the scorching plains, remains of
the ancient kingdom of Sheba are still visible today.

Digging up the past:
"It seems that mystery and imagination are as vital as reason
for man in the hunt for truth. As Albert Einstein wrote in 1930: 'The
most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious; it is the source
od all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who
can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead:
his eyes are closed'."
