Sena (Arabic), sometimes spelled Senna, Sanaw or Sanāw[citation needed] (the latter three names also Arabic), is an abandoned ancient town in Yemen located in the remote eastern Hadramaut valley.[1] This village is distinct from the capital of Yemen, San'a (Arabic), and the town of Sanāw in Oman.[2]

The town of Sena is frequently mentioned in the history of the Lemba tribe; more recently genetic studies have found signs that they may be descendants of the Israelites.[3][better source needed]
