Khan Hathrura Milestone by order of Caliph Abd al-Malik

A milestone inscribed in Arabic found at the site of Khan al-Hathrura, west of Jericho, in 1884. It was produced on the orders of the fifth Umayyad caliph Abd al-Malik (r. 685-705). It marked the 109th mile from Damascus on the road toward Jerusalem. The milestone was transported to the Ottoman Museum in Istanbul (modern Turkey) after its discovery. It was first published by Clermont-Ganneau in RAO 1:201-213; CIA, Jerusalem, "Ville" 1:15f. (No. 1); RCEA 1:13 (no. 14).
The English translation of the inscription:

"Basmalah [Arabic for [In the Name of God']. There is no god but Allah alone; He has no companion. Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and give him peace. Has ordered the repair of this road, and the construction of the milestones the servant of Allah, Abd al-Malik, the Commander of the Faithful. May Allah's mercy be upon him. From Damascus to this milestone [there are] one hundred and nine miles."
