“The Ministry of Heritage and Tourism has announced the discovery of archaeological artefacts at Dibba site in Musandam Governorate, dating back to the first millennium BC, most notably incense burners, bronze axes, and utensils made of copper and steatite.
The Ministry of Heritage and Tourism, in cooperation with an archaeological mission from the Italian Sapienza University, announced the discovery of a number of artefacts at the Dibba site in the Musandam Governorate, dating back to the first millennium BC.
Work is underway for the seventh and final season of excavations in the mass grave CG2, which is 24 metres long and more than 3 metres deep. A number of important artefacts have been uncovered, most notably a censer, bronze axes, and utensils made of copper and steatite.
These recent excavations come as a prelude to the establishment of the visitor centre, which will start implementation soon, in cooperation with OQ Company, and it will be the first of its kind in the Sultanate of Oman and the Gulf Cooperation Council countries. It will be built directly above the archaeological evidence. The centre will include a museum displaying the artefacts discovered at the site.
It is noteworthy that this site is considered one of the most important archaeological sites in Oman and dates back to the first millennium BC, when it was a trading centre associated with neighbouring civilisations in India, Persia and Mesopotamia. Many diverse and precious collectables, locally made and imported from neighbouring civilisations, were found in it.”
