Where was Midian?

Acts 7:29 (ESV)

29 At this retort Moses fled and became an exile in the land of Midian, where he became the father of two sons.

The Midianites lived somewhere in the Sinai Peninsula or in northwest Arabia on the east coast of the Gulf of Aqaba. Moses fled there because he was wanted by Pharaoh and rejected by the Israelites.1
