Pottery Making in the First Oases
The earliest known significant pottery production in Oman appears in the first oases of the Hajar mountains southern foothills during the Umm an‐Nar period (ca. 2700–2000 bc ) of the third millennium bc . Despite the history of ceramic research in southeast Arabia, the modalities of the establishment and organisation of this craft are little known because of limited excavations, stratigraphy and dating. Bat and Bisya are among the largest and ear…
Preliminary Results of the Rural Landscapes of Iron Age Imperial Mesopotamia Project’s 2022–2023 Seasons at Qach Rresh (Kurdistan Region of Iraq)
This article presents the preliminary results of investigations at the site of Qach Rresh on the Erbil Plain of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, conducted by the Rural Landscapes of Iron Age Imperial Mesopotamia project (RLIIM). The site of Qach Rresh is estimated to have been founded in the mid–eighth century B.C.E., at the height of the Assyrian Empire, and continued to be utilised in varying capacity until the onset of the Hellenistic period ( c.…
Cultural and Human Ecological Resilience at Early Bronze Age Bat
The Bat landscape of northwestern Oman is one of intermittent archaeological remains and varied ecological conditions. The site has been a center for human activity since the Neolithic, most famously attested by the Early Bronze Age tombs, towers, and settlement of the UNESCO World Heritage zone. This paper presents recent research conducted by the Bat Archaeological Project in reconstructing the site’s third millennium BC cultural landscape and …

Settlement and Chronology in the early Bronze Age of Southeastern Arabia
The Umm an-Nar period (ca. 2700-2000 BC) of southeastern Arabia is a critical phase of social growth and cultural development in the region. Archaeological understandings of this key time period, however, have been limited by chronological ambiguity, especially in the interior of the Oman Peninsula. Settlements and domestic contexts, often understudied in Arabian prehistory, offer rich and temporally sensitive datasets that are well-suited to fil…
Kizkale Settlement and Its Necropolis (Nakhchivan, Azerbaijan)
Arastirmalar gosteriyor ki, Guney Kafkasya ve Dogu Anadolu’nun Orta Tunc Cagi kulturlerinin belli ozellikleri ile farklilasmasina ragmen onlar arasinda cok sayida benzerlikler de bulunmaktadir. Orta Tunc Cagi’nda Guney Kafkasya’nin bir kisminda siyah ackili seramiklerle karakterize edilen kultur yayilmis, ama Kafkasya’nin guney bolgeleri icin ise boyali seramikler karakteristik olmustur. OrtaTunc Cagi’nin bu boyali seramigi Guney Kafkasya’nin dis…
Al‐Khafaji reinterpreted
Al‐Khafaji is a central and well‐known point on the early third millennium BC map of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Bat, in the Sultanate of Oman. For years, Kasr al‐Khafaji (“Tower 1146”) has been understood as an Umm an‐Nar (ca. 2800–2000 BCE) monument standing amid a contemporary village. However, recent excavations by the Bat Archaeological Project (BAP) reveal that the entirety of the known site—monument(s) and settlement—is situated on a…

If a picture is worth a thousand words…3D modelling of a Bronze Age tower in Oman
Three-dimensional imagery is rapidly transforming the reconstruction, visualization and conceptualization of ancient monuments. We report (and reflect on the value of) digital reconstruction of a third-millennium bc megalithic tower and surrounding landscape using a combination of architectural drawing, 3D photogrammetry and geographic information systems (GIS) mapping. Our results indicate that at least 181 metric tons of limestone (mean boulder…
