Who is Dan Gibson? Daniel "Dan" Gibson (born 1956) is a self-published Canadian author studying the early history of Arabia and Islam. He visited the Arabian peninsula for the first time in his early twenties. After high school and some studies in theology Gibson spent his life researching the history of the Arabian peninsula. Gibson investigated the history of the Arabian and Nabatean trade in the period from 300 BC to 500 AD. This led him to believe that there are contradictions between the archaeological record and the traditional historiography of Arabia respective of Islam. Gibson has developed the theory that Islam's prophet Muhammad did not live in Mecca but in Petra.
Where is Petra? Petra originally known to its inhabitants as Raqmu, is a historical and archaeological city in southern Jordan. Petra lies on the slope of Jabal Al-Madbah in a basin among the mountains which form the eastern flank of the Arabah valley that runs from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba. Petra is believed to have been settled as early as 9,000 BC, and it was possibly established in the 4th century BC as the capital city of the Nabataean Kingdom. The Nabataeans were nomadic Arabs who invested in Petra's proximity to the trade routes by establishing it as a major regional trading hub.
