ANTARA

This series engages with archaeology and ancient history of the Arabian Peninsula, comprising the modern countries of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Yemen. The series engages with the complexity and diversity of human adaptations and interactions that supported the occupation of Arabia’s diverse and changing landscapes, and focuses on internal developments and interconnections with surrounding lands linked through both overland and maritime routes. The chronological focus covers the Palaeolithic through to the Achaemenid Period and allows for interdisciplinary contributions from archaeology and archaeological sciences, ancient history and epigraphy, and heritage. The Editorial Board welcomes both studies of individual sites, as well as synthetic or thematic overviews covering aspects of the study area, and encourages studies that contribute new data and interpretations regarding the impact of long-distance relations within the Arabian Peninsula and with neighbouring regions of Eastern Africa, the Near East, the Indo-Iranian borderlands and South Asia. Together with the complementary series SUBARTU, LEMA, ARAXES, ARATTA, AEGAEON, DANAPRIS, INDUS, and OXUS, ANTARA seeks to illuminate and specify the variety of relations among and between communities that were connected through long-distance networks.
