The Neom Underwater Archaeological Surveys in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aqaba, Saudi Arabia
The NEOM underwater archaeological surveys conducted in north-western Saudi Arabia represent the first systematic survey in the Red Sea. Using a methodology based primarily on diver inspections, the project documented 65 artefact scatters, eight pre-19th-century shipwrecks, and two harbours. Two shipwrecks are especially significant: one, dating to 4th–7th centuries CE, shows an exceptionally preserved cargo, and another dating to the 15th centur…
A Stone Anchors Assemblage from the Red Sea Anchorage at Al-Muwaylih Fort, Saudi Arabia
Recent underwater surveys in north-west Saudi Arabia identified 75 submerged heritage sites, including eight shipwrecks and two harbours. One harbour was identified in a sheltered bay facing the fort and settlement of al-Muwaylih, an important stop on the Egyptian Hajj route since the medieval period. Located about 40 km north of modern Duba, the site received grain shipments from Egypt and supplied passing vessels, as noted by travellers in the …

The Digital Reconstruction of the Herculaneum Boat (79 CE)
Éléments de bateaux recyclés à Naples entre le ier et le début du ve siècle apr. J.-C
Cet article présente la collection d’éléments de bateaux trouvés sous la Piazza Municipio lors des fouilles préventives entreprises en 2014‐2015 avant la construction du métro de Naples. Ces mâts, espars, avirons et, peut-être, gouvernails ont été recyclés en pieux, une pratique qui devait être courante dans l’Antiquité
The Construction of an Historical Boat in South Sulawesi (Indonesia)
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…
Modelling the Maritime Cultural Landscape of the Costiera Amalfitana
Human activity along the Amalfi coastline in Italy has been tied to the sea for millennia – for sustenance, migration, trade, warfare, and leisure. As a result, this region has an equally rich and extensive maritime cultural landscape composed of tangible and intangible elements. In 2016, a multi-disciplinary project began efforts to model and to understand changes within this landscape, and this essay presents the preliminary results of our firs…
Sewn boats in the Qatar Museums collection, Doha
Vernacular sewn boats from southern Iran and Kerala, India, in the collection of Qatar Museums are documented and their construction described. The Iranian baggāras are unique preservations of sewn boats from the Arabian-Persian Gulf, notable for their previously undocumented keel-garboard sewing technique and extensive use of bitumen coatings. Comparison between individual boats enables conclusions to be drawn about the builders’ conception, as …
Stories of Globalisation: The Red Sea and the Persian Gulf from Late Prehistory to Early Modernity
From Boatyard to Museum
This article presents the results of a project to 3D laser scan and digitally model 14 watercraft from the Qatar Museums collection, comprising a range of regional vessels: most had not been surveyed previously. The project used the resulting point clouds generated 2D naval lines and orthographic records of the vessels in their current condition, and photorealistic 3D digital models for gallery display. This case study provides illustrative examp…
Remembering the Sea
People create narratives of their maritime past through the remembering and forgetting of seafaring experiences, and through the retention and disposal of maritime artefacts that function mnemonically to evoke or suppress those experiences. The sustenance and reproduction of the resulting narratives depends further on effective media of intergenerational transmission; otherwise, they are lost. Rapid socio-economic transformation across Saudi Arab…
Towards a Chronology of the Eritrean Red Sea Port of Adulis (1st – Early 7th Century AD)
The Eritrean coastal site of Adulis has been known to archaeologists since the second half of the 19 th century. At the beginning of the 20 th century, the Italian archaeologist Roberto Paribeni conducted extensive excavations in different areas of the site which uncovered the remains of monumental buildings, churches and houses, as well as rich deposits of related material culture. Since then, archaeological investigations have been limited to t…
The Farasan Islands, Saudi Arabia
An archaeological survey of Saudi Arabia's Farasan Islands in May 2010 recorded a broad range of sites that have not previously been documented. The survey concentrated on Greater Farasan and Segid islands, and comprised a rapid recording of sites shown to the authors by representatives of the Saudi Commission for Tourism and Antiquities. The sites were photographed, their positions logged, sketch drawings made of the principal features and surfa…
A Stone Anchor from the Farasan Islands, Saudi Arabia
A large three-holed stone anchor has been found on the Farasan Islands, Saudi Arabia, in the southern Red Sea. The anchor was found on land, 2.6 km from the coast, on a fossil-coral plateau alongside the Wadi Matar valley. This short article describes the anchor, contextualises the find in terms of the wider archaeology of the islands, considers its likely date, and looks for typological comparisons. The authors tentatively suggest that the ancho…

Evidence for Pharaonic Seagoing Ships at Mersa/Wadi Gawasis, Egypt
Cedar ship-timbers and associated debris from Mersa/Wadi Gawasis on the Red Sea provide direct evidence for seafaring in complex watercraft built with standard Egyptian shipbuilding technologies. The Middle Kingdom craft buried at Dashur and disassembled timbers from Lisht (c.1850 and 1950 BC) provide the best parallels for most of the Gawasis finds, but two steering-oar blades are more comparable to early New Kingdom examples. A new type of hull…
