Synopsis "Qandala"

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Qandala is an ancient Port city in Somalia, 75 kilometres (47 mi) east of Bosaso City, 549 kilometres (341 mi) south of Aden, and 475 kilometres (295 mi) west of Socotra. Like many other Somali ports on the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean, may had been frequented by Phoenicians, Egyptians, Persians, Yemenis, Greeks and Roman sailors. A diary dated to 50 CE contains a map of all the ports and their importance. It indicates that Qandala was a trade centre for cinnamon and spices. This trade seems to be evidence that the people were seafarers who travelled to the Far East, as far as present-day India and China. It is not known why the first inhabitants settled at Qandala's shores but the likely explanation is trade. Apart from gums, ivory, animal skins and incense, the rise of the coastal trading post was due to the commercial opportunities the port generated. Ancient migration routes joined Gulf countries to Qandala.
