ʿAmrān (Arabic: عمران; Old South Arabian: 𐩲𐩣𐩧𐩬 ʿmrn) is a small city in western central Yemen.

It is located 52.9 kilometres (32.9 mi) by road northwest of the Yemeni capital of Sana'a,[1] at the upper (southern) end of the al-Bawn plain.

[citation needed] A series of bronze plaques from that time were found in the town in the mid-nineteenth century and are now in the British Museum.

[citation needed] Remains of carved stones that belonged to former temples and palaces bear witness to past glory.

[citation needed] 'Amran is largely absent from medieval sources, and the nearby fortified town of al-Jannat eclipsed it in importance during this period.
