The a to Z of the Gulf Arab States

Recent archaeological investigations in the Gulf Arab States—Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates—have uncovered extensive evidence of an ancient civilization dating back to the time of Egypt's Pharaohs or Babylon. This revelation challenges previous limited knowledge, which relied solely on rare references from other civilizations. The book 'The A to Z of the Gulf Arab States' compiles this newfound historical and cultural significance through a structured format, including chronologies by country, acronyms, an introductory essay, bibliography, and cross-referenced dictionary entries covering key figures, places, and events. This essential reference provides a comprehensive overview of a region critical for its vast oil reserves and rich heritage.
