Subject : Determining the number of Yanbu Alnakhil springs and documents their locations. 
Document Language : Arabic 
Abstract : Yanbu Alnakhil was famous for its springs. There were more than three hundred springs in Yanbu area which made it a good habitat for many people and a good source of food for other regions. Special care was paid to those springs where a management system was made to handle all things related to them. Maintenance of the springs was a top priority where it was funded from the springs' income. For that purpose; strong, courageous and professional people handled that tough job. Every village has its own spring where it was named after it. The spring emerges at the upper part of the village. This part is called "shari'a" and it is the main entrance to the spring when maintained. Many detailed information about the springs in terms of; length, construction, depth and divergence were given by the maintenance people. Since those information were not scientifically documented they are considered to be as local tales. Unfortunately all the springs are dried and the only signs left of some of them – since some were buried – are their mouths. Considering the uniqueness system of these springs and the few expert old people left, the locations of the springs should be found out and kept for records.
