description: "Arnold von Harff was a 15th-century German traveller and writer. He made a pilgrimage that took him to the Holy Land and further afield, to present-day Yemen and Socotra, before returning overland via Antioch and Constantinople. He wrote an account of his travels which mixes first-hand experience and stories from other medieval writers like Marco Polo and Mandeville's Travels. The book, which was published in a printed edition in 1860, contains important information about the ethnology and languages of the regions he visited."
