Ain Qannas, Archaeological site in Al-Ahsa Oasis, Saudi Arabia.
The Ain Qannas site covers two square kilometers within Al-Ahsa Oasis, containing fourteen layers of residential remains from ancient civilizations.
Archaeological excavations at Ain Qannas revealed substantial evidence of the Ubaid civilization, with settlements dating back to the ancient Stone Age period.
The site reflects early human adaptation to the desert environment, demonstrated through agricultural practices and water management systems developed over millennia.
