Yoghbi (original) (raw)

Yoghbi (Arabic: اليغبي) is an abandoned village in north-west Qatar located in the municipality of Al Shamal. It accommodates the earliest yet-discovered Islamic-era settlement on the Qatar Peninsula. It is about 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) to the north of Umm Al Maa and 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) to the southwest of Murwab, two other historic Islamic-period sites.
