Back فترة حفيت Arabic

Hafit period

An unrestored beehive tomb from the Hafit period at Jebel Hafeet, on the border of the U.A.E. and Oman. Most of the hundreds of tombs to be found at the eastern foothills of the mountain have collapsed.

The Hafit period defines early Bronze Age human settlement in the United Arab Emirates and Oman in the period from 3200 to 2600 B.C. It is named after the distinctive beehive burials first found on Jebel Hafit, a rocky mountain near Al Ain, bordering the Rub Al Khali desert. Hafit period tombs and remains have also been located across the UAE and Oman in sites such as Bidaa bint Saud,[1] Jebel Buhais and Buraimi.[2]
