title: Beyond the Pale of Near Eastern Archaeology: Anthropomorphic Figures from al-Aqir near Bahla’, Sultanate of Oman creator: Yule, Paul subject: 939 subject: Andere Teile der alten Welt bis ca. 640 subject: Other parts of ancient world (Antiquity) [R939] subject: History of the ancient world to ca. 499 [T930] subject: Sculpture, ceramics & metalwork [T730] description: Metallic anthropomorphic figures, the subject of this essay, derive from Magan/Makkan i.e. from an Umm an-Nar Period context in al-Aqir/Bahla in the south-western piedmont of the western Hajjar chain. These artefacts are compared with those from northern India in terms of their origin and/or dating. They are particularly interesting owing to a secure provenance in middle Oman. contributor: Stöllner, T. date: 2003 type: Book Section type: info:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: https://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/propylaeumdokhttps://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/propylaeumdok/109/1/Yule_2003.pdf identifier: DOI:10.11588/propylaeumdok.00000109 identifier: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-propylaeumdok-1093 identifier: Yule, Paul (2003) Beyond the Pale of Near Eastern Archaeology: Anthropomorphic Figures from al-Aqir near Bahla’, Sultanate of Oman.
