The papers in this volume were given at a seminar "The Archaeology
of Bahrain: the British contribution" on Monday 24th July 2000 at
the School of Oriental and African Studies, London. The venue was
the excellent Brunei Gallery, within the School, which was at the
time playing host to the exhibition "Traces of Paradise" which
unfolded the story of Bahrain's early history. It was the
exhibition that provided the inspiration and the context for the
Seminar. The British contribution to the archaeology of Bahrain
goes back far more than a century and is substantial. The ten
seasons of expeditions led by Dr. Killick, Dr. Moon and Dr.
Crawford represent the latest, and distinguished, contribution
within that tradition. The Seminar was dedicated to the memory of
the archaeologist Martin Hicks who spent many years in Bahrain as
Assistant Director of the London-Bahrain Archaeological Expendition
and who tragically lost his life there while he was a member of the
team working at Saar. The papers include: The British Contribution
to the archaeology of Bahrain: the early years (Michael Rice);
Excavations at al-Markh (Michael Roaf); Dilmun at the turn of the
millennium: living at Saar (Robert Killick); Diraz East and A'ali
East (Michael Roaf); Restructuring Bronze Age trade: Bahrain,
southeast Asia and the copper question (Robert Carter); Arad fort:
its restoration and foreign relations (Archie Walls). Includes many
references to pioneering early English archaeologists in the
region, such as Theodore J Bent, etc.
