فحدثنا ابو عبد الله الاصبهاني، حدثنا الحسن بن الجهم، حدثنا الحسين بن الفرج، حدثنا محمد بن عمر قال: اسلم مخرمة بن نوفل عند فتح مكة، وكان عالما بنسب قريش واحاديثها، وكانت له معرفة بانصاب الحرم (2)، فولد مخرمة صفوان، وبه كان يكنى، وهو الاكبر من ولده.
It is narrated from Muhammad bin Umar that Sayyiduna Makhramah bin Nawfal (may Allah be pleased with him) accepted Islam at the time of the Conquest of Makkah. He was a great scholar of the genealogy and history of Quraysh, and he also had deep knowledge of the boundary markers of the Haram. A son, Safwan, was born to him, after whom his kunyah was Abu Safwan, and he was the eldest of his children.

General principle: Ustadh 'Atiq al-Biladi explained in "Mu'jam al-Ma'alim al-Jughrafiyyah" (p. 33) that these are markers (ansab) built of plastered stones on the roads leading out of Makkah; outside them is 'hill' and inside them is 'haram'. These boundaries had continued from the time of Quraysh; the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) kept them, and the Muslims preserved them for centuries.
(2) قال الأستاذ عاتق البلادي الحربي ﵀ في "معجم المعالم الجغرافية في السيرة النبوية" ص 33: هي أنصاب مبنية من الحجارة المجصّصة على جوانب الطرق الخارجة من مكة، فما وراءَها حِلٌّ وما دونها حرام، وهي حدود موروثة من عهد قريش، ثم أقرّها رسول الله ﷺ وحافظ عليها المسلمون على مرِّ السنين.
