A Yemeni militiaman stands on a
limestone column at the Awwam
Temple in Marib, Yemen, on Feb. 3.
The temple links a region now on
the front lines of the Saudi-led war
against Shiite rebels to Arabia's pre-
Islamic past, a time of spice caravans
and the mysterious Queen of Sheba.
Experts fear the temple, as well as
other historic and cultural wonders
across Yemen beyond those
acknowledged by international
authorities, remains at risk as the
country's stalemated war rages on.
