History Of Makka Madina

The Arabian city of Mecca (or Makkah) enjoys a colorful history, that available evidence suggests began in around the 4th century AD, when migrants from Yemen initially settled the area.
Since Mecca is the historical and geographical epicenter of the religion of Islam this foundational element is interesting to explore whether one is religious or not.
All practicing Muslims, everywhere in the world, are obligated to prostrate themselves in prayer toward the Kaaba in Mecca five times a day.
Additionally, every Muslim is further obliged to travel to Mecca and perform the Islamic ritual of the Hajj, at least once in their lifetime, because it is the "fifth pillar" of Islam. Islamic "tradition" holds that Mecca's Kaaba was the first temple on earth and that it was built by Adam (Adem), who Muslims believe was 90 feet tall, and later rebuilt by Abraham and Ishmael (Ibrahim, Ismail). So where did this "tradition" come from?
Historical and Archaeological Evidence
The archaeological record of Arabia is one of the best preserved on earth because the relatively low rainfall limited degredation of the archaeological evidence.
Many ancient towns such as Yemen, Qudar, Dedan, Tiema, Mada'in Saleh (Al-Hijr), Magan (Oman) and Dilmun are well attested in the historical and archaeological record, and also attest to each other.
The historical record of Arabia even includes evidence of very small Arabian towns, established before the Christian era, that came and went within a few centuries.
