The vicinity between Hudra Oasis and Gebel Matamir to the south is known for its prehistoric "Nawamis", which forms a cluster of an approximate 30 stone-built burials. The burials date back to the Chalcolithic-Early Bronze Age (3,400-2,850 BCE). The palm grove of Hudra Oasis (Biblical Hatzerot) is recognised as the traditional location where the Israelites encamped on the Exdous Traditional Route and later part of Darb El Batraa in Sinai Peninsula (Way of Petra). The rock inscriptions of Hadabat El Haggag (the pilgrim's plateau) is located to the east of the "Nawamis". The foot of the plateau was a key caravan way station on Darb El Batraa in Sinai Peninsula (Way of Petra or Exodus Traditional Route), between Mount Sinai (Biblical Sinai) and Saint Catherine Monastery and the Gulf of Aqaba to Jerusalem for pilgrims, travellers and scholars since 4th century CE. Hundreds of rock inscriptions date back to the Nabatean and Roman (1st-early 4th centuries CE), Byzantine (4th-7th centuries CE) and Islamic periods, and were written in Greek (200), Nabatean (60), Roman Hebrew (5) and Arabic (20). Mezena tribe (17th century CE) inhabits the vicinity. (Source: A. Shams, Sinai Peninsula Research, 2018)
