Dosariyah, Archaeological site in Jubail, Saudi Arabia
Located 800 meters from the Persian Gulf coastline, Dosariyah stands as a north-south oriented flat hill rising 2 meters above ground level.
The settlement dates back to the late 6th and early 5th millennium BCE, with seven distinct layers of debris discovered during excavations in 1972.
The site contains extensive collections of painted pottery, stone tools made from silex and obsidian, along with seashells and remains of mammals and fish.
A protective fence surrounds the archaeological site, which continues to undergo excavations by a joint Saudi-German research team since 2010.
Analysis revealed that 25 percent of the pottery found contains straw and mineral temper, representing a specific local tradition from the Arabian Neolithic period.
