This is the result of the safe maritime routes and their location at the "intersection" of South Eastern Asia , the Middle East & Africa. Its length also extends from the "Strait of Hormuz" at the junction between the Arabian Sea & the "Persian Gulf"  to the coast of the Indian Ocean.
• Oman inhabitants had exceptional  sailing skills and have been using maritime routes since at least the 3rd millennium B.C. due to their excellent knowledge of navigation. The knowledge of the sea of Omani's navigators and their skills in astronomy means that merchants who wished to sail had recruited them

Sohar was therefore at the heart of the trade between East-West, which made Sohar one of the prosperous cities of the region.
