| Research Abstract |
IN THE FISCAL 1988, WE CLASSIFIED AND ANALYZED THE DATA YIELDED THROUGH THE FIELD WORKS CARRIED OUT IN THE PREVIOUS SEASON IN THE FISCAL 1987 IN VAHRAIN AND QATAR.
ALL THE MAPS AND PHOTOGRAPHICAL DOCUMENTS MADE AT BURI, BAHRAIN, AND AT UMM AL-MAA, QATAR, HAVE BEEN STUDIED IN OUR LABORATORIES AND COMPARED WITH OTHER ARCHAEOLOGICAL WORKS AND PAPERKS IN ORDER TO PREPARE THE PUBLICATION. IN THE BAHRAIN, WE CLARIFIED A COUPLE OF TYPICAL CONSTRUCTIONS OF THE 3RD MILLENIUM BARBAR BURIAL FEATURES. IN QATAR, ON THE OTHER HAND, WE IDENTIFIED A VARIETY OF STONE CAIRNS CONSTRUCTED IN VARIOUS TIMES FROM THE BRONZE AGE TO THE LATER PREISLAMIC PERIOD. OUR FUTURE FIELD WORKS WOULD CLARIFY THE GULF IN ANTIQUITIES IN MORE DETAIL.
