The Bedouin knew how
to navigate in the desert and how to find water. In the desert it’s hard to
live but the UAE’s Bedouins have managed to survive by saving food, water and shelter.
Bedouins knew where the wells were and how many there were. On the other hand,
there were Bedouins who followed birds. Bedouins dug wells with their bare
hands and the wells were from 3 to 10 meters also, they can tell if there is
water by the vegetation of the ground. Bedouins even knew how to desalinate
seawater and make it potable by a water vessel called a qebra. Some Bedouins
killed camels because of the water in their body; a camel can drink 100 liters
of water and can store it for a long time. Milk of camels and goats can replace
water. Bedouins can stand dehydration better than most.
