Abstract
The project carried out by the Archaeological Mission of the Autonomous University of Madrid at al Madam takes place in the interior of the Oman Peninsula, in Sharjah Emirate, one of the emirates that make up United Arab Emirates. In 2020, the granting of the study of a necropolis north of al Madam, in the municipality of al Khudairah opened our study to the funerary rests of ancient Magan. According to local authorities, in other to study both the village and the necropolis, our team expanded and added a group of archaeobiologists no longer intermittently, but permanently. Thus, in February 2020, we establish the bases for the Spanish Archaeological and Archaeobiological Mission at Sharjah (SAAMS) as well as a new project: al Madam-al Khudairah Project. Live in the Oasis-Death on the Hills.
