The Gulf of Zula, also known in various accounts as Annesley Bay, the Bay of Arafali (or Baia di Arafali), or the Gulf of Arafali, is a body of water on the Eritrean coastline on the Red Sea, located at 15°10′N 39°46′E / 15.167°N 39.767°E / 15.167; 39.767Coordinates: 15°10′N 39°46′E / 15.167°N 39.767°E / 15.167; 39.767.
The Gulf lies near the midpoint of the Eritrean coast, between the Foro province and the Buri Peninsula of the Ghelae'lo province, both in the country's Northern Red Sea region. It also marks the territorial division between the Saho people and the Afar people.
The egyptologist Henry Salt identified the site as the ancient Adulis. Along with the nearby Bay of Anfila, it was claimed by Ethiopia in the 19th century.

Annesley is a village and civil parish in the District of Ashfield in Nottinghamshire, England, located between Hucknall and Kirkby-in-Ashfield. According to the 2001 census the parish had a population of 1,096. Nearby to the west is Annesley Woodhouse. Presumably the Annesley family, now spread worldwide, originally took its name from that of the village.
The privately owned Annesley Hall is a grade two listed building, once owned by the powerful Chaworth-Musters family and has connections to the Byron family of nearby Newstead Abbey. Annesley Old Church was mentioned by Lord Byron and D. H. Lawrence, two literary figures of importance who lived in Nottinghamshire. There is also close by the earthworks of Annesley Castle
The Misk Hills lie to the south of the village. Annesley is part of Nottinghamshire's Hidden Valleys area. The parish is grouped with the neighbouring parish of Felley (pop 4) to elect a joint parish council. The village primary school is on Forest Road in Annesley Woodhouse. There is a library in Annesley Woodhouse church hall on Skegby Road which is open three days a week. The old church of Annesley was dedicated to All Saints. It was allowed to become derelict in the 1940s. Features of interest included the east window of the south aisle, the 13th century sedilia and the 17th century royal arms in stucco.
Annesley may refer to:
A restless eye across a weary room
A glazed look and I was on the road to ruin
The music played and played as we whirled without end
No hint, no word her honour to defend
I will, I will she sighed to my request
And then she tossed her mane while my resolve was put to the test
Then drowned in desire, our souls on fire
I lead the way to the funeral pyre
And without a thought of the consequence
I gave in to my decadence
One slip, and down the hole we fall
It seems to take no time at all
A momentary lapse of reason
That binds a life for life
A small regret, you won't forget,
There'll be no sleep in here tonight
Was it love, or was it the idea of being in love?
Or was it the hand of fate, that seemed to fit just like a glove?
The moment slipped by and soon the seeds were sown
The year grew late and neither one wanted to remain alone
One slip, and down the hole we fall
It seems to take no time at all
A momentary lapse of reason
That binds a life for life
A small regret, you won't forget,
There'll be no sleep in here tonight
