Excavations at the Umayyad and Early Abbasid Reservoir-Enclosure of ‘Ayn Sawda (Azraq Oasis, Jordan)
In the centre of the Azraq oasis in the Eastern Desert of Jordan, there is a long wall previously interpreted as a huge water reservoir that was fed by the ‘Ayn Sawda spring. The site, seen as belonging to the category of the Umayyad “desert castles,” is best known through the many basalt blocks with mortise and tenon joints that were found there, several being carved with figurative representations in bas and high relief. These form an exception…
From Bāzyān to al-Ḥīra
The beginnings of Christianity in Iraq are difficult to establish due to the lack of sources from before the 3rd century. 1 According to Oriental traditions, the provinces of Assyria and Babylonia were evangelized in the 1st and early 2nd centuries by the apostles Adda and Mari, and Mesopotamia by both of them, together with Thomas. They founded the Church of Babylonia that became the first apostolic Church in Mesopotamia. The Christian centres o…
Des églises monastiques de pèlerinage
Certaines églises, occupées principalement à la période umayyade et situées au sud de l’Irak et dans le golfe Arabo-Persique, présentent des similitudes déjà mises en évidence : elles sont caractérisées par un sanctuaire rectangulaire à chevet plat encadré par deux annexes, des vaisseaux séparés par des murs-piliers et des entrées latérales. Leur plan original et leur environnement monastique fournissent des informations sur leur fonction et leur…
A Composite Monastic Community? New Hypotheses on al‐Quṣayr Settlement (Province of Karbalā, Iraq)
The site of al‐Quṣayr, in southern Iraq, is known for its monumental church built at the turn of Islam. Mentioned by orientalists, surveyed in 1973 and then excavated in 1978 and in 2009, it was interpreted as a monastery with a church surrounded by a village with another church. A preliminary architectural survey and a study of previous publications suggested that it was a mixed monastery with monks living outside the coenobium, which enclosed t…
Networked spaces
The 34 articles published in this volume form the proceedings of the 9th Red Sea conference held at Lyon in July 2019, whose core topic was the “spatiality of networks in the Red Sea”, including the western Indian Ocean. In the networked space that the Erythra Thalassa never ceased to be, stable factors such as landscape, climate, and wind patterns have been constantly entangled with more dynamic elements, such as human activity. The contributors…
A consideration on the interest of a pottery typology adapted to the late Sasanian and early Islamic monastery at al‐Qusur (Kuwait)
Since 2011, the French–Kuwaiti Archaeological Mission in Failaka has aimed at defining the function and the chronology of al‐Qusur, located in the middle of Failaka Island (Kuwait). The central part of the site appeared to be a monastery, mainly occupied in early Islamic times. The creation of a site‐specific pottery typology adapted to this settlement was one of the main objectives of the team. This typology is still in progress and the present …

Archaeological evidence of an early Islamic monastery in the centre of al‐Qusur (Failaka Island, Kuwait)
The history of Christianity in the Gulf is still largely unknown since both archaeological and written sources are sparse. Many questions remain about the development and disappearance of Christian communities, as well as their form. A few sites were identified as Christian because of the discovery of churches or crosses. A church was excavated at al‐Qusur (Failaka Island, Kuwait) by the French Mission to Kuwait in 1988–1989. Since 2011, a new Fr…
The Early Islamic Pottery from the Monastery at al-Qusur
The pottery discovered at al-Qusur (Failaka Island, Kuwait) is of first importance to clarify thedating of the Christian settlements of the Arab-Persian Gulf. Firstly attributed to the Sasanianperiod by their excavators on the base of pottery and stucco studies, theses sites were thenattributed to the Early Islamic period by other scholars according to the artefacts published.Complete catalogues of the materiel unearthed on these sites are still …
