Funeral Monuments and Human Remains from Jebel Al-Buhais is the first volume in the Archaeology of Jebel Al-Buhais series, providing a comprehensive overview of archaeological investigations conducted by the Sharjah Archaeology Authority in the Jebel Al-Buhais region. The volume documents the area's funerary monuments and human remains spanning the Neolithic, Bronze, and Iron Ages, with particular emphasis on the prehistoric cemetery of Al-Buhais 18. It combines archaeological, osteological, and bioanthropological research to examine burial architecture, human skeletal remains, funerary practices, demographic characteristics, and health conditions of ancient populations. Through detailed analyses of excavation results and associated material culture, the book offers significant insights into the lifeways, mortuary traditions, and cultural development of prehistoric communities in southeastern Arabia, making it an essential scholarly reference for the archaeology of the United Arab Emirates and the wider Arabian Peninsula.
