Results of four seasons of survey in the Province of Najrān (Saudi Arabia) – 2007-2010
Résumé
A survey conducted between 2007–2010 in the Najrān region by the Saudi-French Project aimed to reinvestigate in a systematic way several archae- ological and epigraphical sites mentioned in for- mer archaeological studies (Philby – Ryckmans – Lippens, Zarins, and Kawatoko expeditions). Areas located to the north of the Najrān oasis were tar- geted in particular: these were the Jabal Kawkab and Taṯlīṯ, as well as the wādī Najrān. Five sur- vey seasons led to reevaluations of previously pub- lished works and new first-rate discoveries, which are detailed in the following paper.
