| 500 | a | Neolithic structures (17 features) and flint tools (8,000-5,000 BCE) were found in the vicinity of Shrafett El Hagg to the east of Mitla Pass. Darb El Hagg was the Muslim pilgrimage route from Egypt to Mecca via Ras El Nakab and the Aqaba fortress at the head of the Gulf of Aqaba, between 1268 and 1517 CE and continued to be traversed until 1885 CE. The pilgrims passed a series of landmarks, water points and waystations along the route: the three rock pillars of El Nwatir and the rock inscriptions at Dabbet El Baghla (Mamluk, Qunswa El Ghouri, 1508-17 CE), El Munsaraf at Diset El Hag, Al Qubab at Fashet El Haag and Wadi El Tiwal, Shrafett El Hagg, Gebeil Hisn (also known as Hassan Ibn Al-Nasser), Nakhl (Medeival Islamic ruins, 7th-8th centuries CE; El Bir El Sultani, 1279-90 and 1501-17 CE; Malik El Dynkandar fortress, 1331 CE; Mamluk/Qunswa El Ghouri and Ottoman fortress, 1508-54 CE; the Bedouin shrines of Mohamed El Ghazawy El Nakhlawy, El Hagag from Lihywat tribe and 'Ads; the administrative centre of central Sinai since 19th century CE), El Qurrays (Mamluk and Ottoman water point, 1250-1800 CE; the Bedouin shrine of Abu Muhammad El Gohry, 1582 CE), and Dabbet El Baa'la. Darb El Hagg crosses the territories of different tribes from west to east: Lihywat (17th century CE), Huwitat (17th century CE), Tayaha (10-13th century CE) and Tarabien (16th century CE). Mitla, Giddi and Khatmiya passes (from south to north) control the crossing of North Sinai from west (Suez Canal) to east, where military operations took place throughout the 20th century CE. The first asphalt road between El Sahtt on Gulf of Suez to Ras El Nakab via Mitla Pass was constructed by the Egyptian Corps of Engineers in 1950-51 CE, and later extended to the east in 1956-58 CE.
