摘要本报告介绍了对大Wadi Sirhan盆地两个地区，即南部的Wadi Hudruj峡谷和北部的Jibaal al-Tharwa进行短期考古勘察的结果。这导致了二十多个新遗址的发现，从旧石器时代中期到青铜时代早期。对结果的分析表明，这两个领域之间存在重大差异。虽然Wadi Sirhan盆地的北方部分在更新世晚期和全新世早期的大部分时间里都被开采过，但其更干旱的西南边缘似乎在很大程度上一直无人居住，直到铜器时代/早期青铜时代。
Abstract This report describes the results of a short archaeological reconnaissance of two areas in the greater Wadi Sirhan basin, the Wadi Hudruj gorge in the south and the Jibaal al-Tharwa in the north. This resulted in the discovery of over twenty new sites, ranging in date from the Middle Palaeolithic to the Early Bronze Age. Analysis of the results exposed significant differences between the two areas. Although northern parts of the Wadi Sirhan basin were clearly exploited throughout much of the late Pleistocene and early Holocene, its more arid south-western margins appear to have remained largely unoccupied until the Chalcolithic / Early Bronze Age.
