Live From Oman . . .

Geologists know Majlis al Jinn deserves the spotlight. What they can't determine is how this chamber developed its star qualities. One theory suggests that eons ago, when the sea level was higher and the Selma Plateau was lower, either a mixture of fresh and salt water or acidic groundwater slowly carved out this cave. But there's no scientific consensus, leaving Majlis al Jinn's origins a mystery—which only adds to its mystique.
