Qatar: Evidence of the Palaeolithic Earliest People Revealed, with
full text in both English and Arabic, tells the story of the long
and difficult search to discover the identity of the first people
to inhabit the sovereign State of Qatar, which is situated on a
peninsula, that extends into the Arabian Gulf. The book synthesises
the results of extensive fieldwork by the PADMAC Unit with the many
diverse historical records and reports of investigations, beginning
with Holgar Kapel's, in the early 1950s. The archaeology of the
State of Qatar is an important part of the cultural heritage of the
world. The loss of archaeological sites to urban and industrial
development since the 1950s has been inevitable but the loss of
over 30 years of Palaeolithic research in Qatar, an area of
prehistoric significance, as a result of academic dissension, is
certainly regrettable. The work of the PADMAC Unit in Qatar now
marks the end of this Palaeolithic research hiatus.
