Michael Rice here examines the archaeological remains so prevalent in the Gulf area, which, although remarkable, have up to now remained unexplored. A renowned Egyptologist, expert on the remains of Dilmun, and author of "Egypt's Making," Rice has written the first up-to-date work encompassing findings from recent studies of the area.
Rice discusses the Gulf's role as a major channel of commerce, a tradition which has continued up to the present day. He also shows how Gulf archaeology is evidence of the cultural cross-pollination which occurred among societies which traded with each other.
