Timna (Arabic,تمنة) is an ancient city in Yemen, the capital of the Qataban kingdom; it is distinct from a city in Southern Israel that shares the same name.
During ancient times, Timna was an important hub in the famous Incense Route, which supplied Arabian and Indian incense via camel caravan to ports on the Mediterranean Sea, most notably Gaza, and Petra.
An American excavation of Timna took place in the 1950s chronicled in the book "Qataban and Sheba" by the American archaeologist Wendell Phillips.

Summer's coming too fast
Winter's been here too long
If we keep wasting our days
Pretty soon they'll be gone
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
I've been out here all night
I've been out here all day
With my eyes open wide
Hoping that you will say
Everything is all right
We can be happy too
If you look out for me
The way I looked out for you
People take what they need
Then they tell you, "Get lost"
Kindly leading you on
While they're ripping you off
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
I've been out here all night
I've been out here all day
With my eyes open wide
Hoping that you will say
Everything is all right
We can be happy too
If you look out for me
The way I looked out for you
If I sounded insecure
It's because I wasn't sure
You were really there
I've been out here all night
I've been out here all day
With my eyes open wide
Hoping that you will say
Everything is all right
We can be happy too
If you look out for me
The way I looked out for you
You can stand there all night
You can stand there all day
You can do what you like
It doesn't matter to me
