Dromedaries often seen in Herat
Dromedaries were first domesticated in central or southern Arabia, thought to be around 4000 years ago. It was only in the ninth or tenth century BCE that the animal became popular in the Near East an Afghanistan. Today there are almost 13 million domesticated dromedaries, found in Middle Asia and Northern Africa.
