Großenhain
Großenhain (also written as Grossenhain; hsb, Wulki Hojn) is a Große Kreisstadt (German for major district town) in the district of Meissen, Saxony, Germany. It was originally known as Hayne. The current name simply means "big Hayne" History Großenhain was originally a Sorbian settlement, and remains an area where this language is spoken. It was first mentioned in 1205. It was for a time occupied by the Bohemians, by whom it was strongly fortified. It afterwards came into the possession of the margraves of Meissen, from whom it was taken in 1312 by the margraves of Brandenburg. In the middle-ages, Großenhain was one of the most powerful towns in Saxony. It suffered considerably in all the great German wars, and in 1744 was nearly destroyed by fire. The fire destroyed the church which was then replaced by the current Marienkirche, which echoes internally echoes the Frauenkirche in nearby Dresden. On May 16, 1813, a battle took place here between the French (Napoleon's a ...

Jabal al-ʿHayn ( ar, جبل العهين, sometimes; Jabal Uhayn, Uhain or Uhain mount, literally the 'mount of censure') is a prominent outcrop of red sandstone in Saudi Arabia, known for its pre-historic petroglyphs, tribal markings (''wusūm'') and inscriptions in early Semitic languages as well as Arabic. The mountain is located in Al Madinah Province, Medina Province, about 17.5 km north-east of the town of al-Hanākīyā (الحناكية) at 24°59'21"N 40°38'27"E. Petroglyphs Ancient petroglyphs carved on the rock faces of Jabal al-ʿHayn depict horned bison, standing figures and an exceptional wild cat with a curling tail. Camels are shown in some petroglyphs that seem to be less ancient. Inscriptions Among the many inscriptions at Jabal al-ʿHayn are a number in Arabic which date to the earliest years of the Islamic calendar. One inscription quotes Quran, Surah 18 Al-Kahf verse 21.

Hayn (crater)
Hayn is a lunar impact crater that lies next to the northeast limb of the Moon. This location restricts the amount of detail that can be viewed from the Earth, as the western inner side is permanently hidden from sight. Observation of this crater can also be affected by libration, which can completely hide this crater from sight. This crater lies across the northwestern rim of the walled plain Bel'kovich, to the north of the Mare Humboldtianum. It is otherwise relatively isolated from other named craters, with the nearest being Cusanus to the northwest. This is a young crater with a rim and interior that have not yet been significantly eroded. It has a circular but somewhat uneven rim and an inner wall containing a number of terraces. The southern rim is slightly more pronounced in height where it joins the heavily worn rim of Bel'kovich. There is also an outer rampart beyond the rim that is more extensive to the southwest. Of the rim of Bel'kovich to the east of Hayn there is lit ...
