Panel Discussion: Kulnings of Memory: Accounts of People and Camels

Driven by its uncompromising pursuit of enriching the Saudi society with knowledge and investing in human resources throughout its long history, Saudi Aramco has continued towards this goal through its cultural initiative, the King Abdulaziz Center for World Culture (Ithra). The Ithra team worked with diligence to complete the book titled Kulnings of Memory: Accounts of People and Camels. The main idea behind the book is to shed light on the intimate relations between people and their camels throughout the different regions of Saudi. It tells of the special bond that cameleers, camel racers and merchants hold with their beloved camels, and it shares poignant stories that have been passed down orally, held dearly in the collective memories of peoples, and passed from one place to another.
