Excavations and Surveys of 2022 and 2023 at Wadi al-Maʻawil (Oman)
Résumé
During 2022 and 2023, our field activities focused on Wadi al-Maʻawil, a very large wadi close to the Muslimāt village in between Nakhal and Afī oasis, where in 2022 we discovered a completely unexplored and multifaceted ecotope. We selected a 10 x 10 Km squared area encompassing this ecotope after ground truthing because of the high intensity of the archaeological features and because it featured three adaptive conditions: the presence of large widyān with central terraces, the presence of an anthropized oasis and the presence of a possible ancient settlement pattern in which the anthropic features (settlements, graves, pathways) were almost close together and intervisible. This volume studies the landscape of the site and classifies, studies, and describes all the finds during the excavations and survey campaigns of 2022 and 2023.
