The Seminar for Arabian Studies is the only international academic
forum that meets annually for the presentation of research in the
humanities on the Arabian Peninsula. It focuses on the fields of
archaeology, architecture, art, epigraphy, ethnography, history,
language, linguistics, literature, and numismatics from the
earliest times to the present day. A wide range of original and
stimulating papers presented at the Seminar is published in the
Proceedings of the Seminar for Arabian Studies and reflects the
dynamism and scope of the interdisciplinary event. The Proceedings
present the cutting edge of new research on Arabia and include
reports of new discoveries in the Peninsula. They are published
each spring in time for the subsequent Seminar, which is held in
July. The main foci of the Seminar in 2015, in descending order of
the number of papers presented in each session were North Arabia,
South Arabia and Aksum, Archaeological Survey and Field Methods,
Bronze and Iron Ages in Eastern Arabia, Islamic Archaeology, and
Neolithic Archaeology. In addition, there were sessions on Recent
Cultural History in Arabia, and Heritage Management in Arabia, as
well as a special session on the Nabataean world titled 'Beyond the
"rose-red" city: the hinterland of Petra and Nabatean rural sites',
which featured a total of six papers. This volume also includes
notes in memoriam on Professor Andrzej Zaborski (1942-2014),
Professor Ordinarius at the Jagellonian University of Cracow, who
specialized in Afro-Asiatic linguistics, Semitic and Cushitic in
particular.
