00:02Connecting with archaeology provides you a sense of identity

00:05and connects Qatar to the rest of the world.

00:07By making this event, we promote and encourage

00:10not only the states but also the public

00:13and all the communities around Zubara

00:16to protect their marine and cultural heritage,

00:19underwater cultural heritage.

00:24Hello and welcome to Qatar 365 with me, Laila Humaira.

00:28On this episode, we take a look at how the country is preserving

00:32both archaeological sites and its intangible cultural heritage.

00:37Let's first start here at the northern tip of Qatar

00:40in a village called Ain Mohamed.

00:42As I found out, it's one of a few dozen historical sites

00:46where researchers are conducting excavations

00:48to dig into the history of the early Islamic period.

00:54In the study of human history,

00:56nothing comes quite close to the thrill of discovering an ancient site.

01:00Dr. Robert Qatar is leading the research at Ain Mohamed Excavation Site.

01:05What he and his team have found tells a fascinating story

01:09about the area in Qatar's history.

01:11Well, there were definitely people living here.

01:13So they were not only undertaking production activities,

01:17they were also living around the factory as well

01:20because we have their food remains in little hearths,

01:22you know, cooking places.

01:24In fact, we have evidence from the site that they were growing crops.

01:27So we have a settled population

01:29and they're farming and they're making textiles.

01:32And they're in Qatar.

01:34In the last 15 years, Ain Mohamed has been one of more than 30 sites

01:38identified by Qatar Museum's archaeologists,

01:40giving a glimpse of how life was like in the 19th century.

01:44But more recent findings have indicated that these sites existed way before then,

01:49between the 7th and the 9th century,

01:51which was also the time period that witnessed the birth of Islam in the Arabian Peninsula.

01:57Qatar Museums launched the Landscapes of Faith project

02:00to trace the intersection of when Christianity and Islam first overlapped.

02:05So far, we haven't found any good evidence either way

02:08for whether the people at the sites that were excavating

02:11are Christian or Muslim.

02:13But what we have found is some very interesting facts

02:16about the activities they were performing,

02:18the lives that they were leading

02:20and the connections they had with the outside world.

02:23After two excavation seasons,

02:25Dr. Carter and his team have collected a few pieces

02:28that make up the human history puzzle.

02:31We have a complete grinding stone,

02:34two halves of a rotary quern, we call it,

02:36still together in position, which is very unusual.

02:40We have several finds relating to textile production.

02:43We have spindle whorls, which are weights,

02:45and we have spindles, brass rods, which are used to spin.

02:49So we believe they were producing wool on this site.

02:52Here we've got a very nicely made basin

02:54with a nice lip with gypsum plaster and a drainage hole

02:58going through into a pit on the other side.

03:00And the pits where these basins empty out

03:03tend to be filled with this ashy sediment,

03:07which is one of the reasons we believe that they were washing something,

03:10probably a fleece, in ashy water to clean it.

03:13Among the finds was also this,

03:15the skeletal remains of a small dog in one of the rooms.

03:19While it's yet to be dated, it could indicate domestication of pets

03:23or perhaps the owning of sheepdogs.

03:26Every year, the museum holds an open day.

03:29It's a chance for the public to experience, explore,

03:32and learn about the excavation site.

03:35We have a group of people that can excavate with us.

03:38They can sieve the finds and the spoil that we find.

03:42They can wash pottery.

03:44They can take some photography.

03:46So it's a very hands-on day.

03:49Connecting with archaeology provides you a sense of identity

03:52and connects Qatar to the rest of the world.

03:55Angie Altam grew up watching Indiana Jones movies,

03:58so signing up to such an opportunity was a no-brainer.

04:02It was my first time here, and yeah, I found it fascinating,

04:06just digging, finding, and all these.

04:09And there is a very ancient and vibrant history in Qatar.

04:13Beginner's luck was on her side as Angie found a piece of broken pottery

04:18that looks like what the archaeologists are looking for.

04:21The team thinks they've only scratched the surface at Ain Muhammad

04:25and are hopeful that future digs will bring them more artefacts

04:29to help solve the mystery of Qatar's earliest dwellers.

04:33Preserving ancient sites is one important aspect of making sure past civilisations

04:44don't get lost through the ages.

04:46But so is spreading the knowledge to future generations.

04:50I'm here at Masharib Museums in the heart of Doha

04:54to meet General Manager Abdullah Al-Nama,

04:57who gives us an insight to the museum's role in keeping Qatar's heritage alive.

05:04Mr. Abdullah, thank you so much for having us here today.

05:07I wanted to start first with where we are.

05:10This is the Muhammad bin Jassim House.

05:13What is the historical and cultural significance of this building?

05:17Muhammad bin Jassim is one of our four museums here at Masharib Museums.

05:22Muhammad bin Jassim is very significant to the downtown Masharib.

05:26This covers the history of Masharib as an area.

05:29Plus, it explains the seven steps that the new architectural language

05:34that the city was built upon, how they established.

05:38And it's also a testimonial of the education that here in downtown Masharib properties

05:45were trying to spread the knowledge of building a smart and sustainable city

05:49to the younger generation.

05:50And there are a few other historical houses that make up Masharib Museums.

05:55Can you tell us more about those buildings?

05:57We have as well Beit bin Julmut,

06:00which is the first and only museum in the world

06:03that talks about the story of slavery in the Indian Ocean world.

06:06And also we have the Company House,

06:08which is a museum that focuses on the Qatari pioneers

06:11who were working in the oil industry.

06:13The fourth museum is Ravwani House.

06:15Ravwani House is a prototype of the old Qatari houses.

06:19Free oil and post oil.

06:21The four museums, the four stories, actually it's a social and economical study

06:26of the history of Qatari the past 120 years.

06:30So what are the ongoing outreach programs that you have at the museum right now?

06:36When Masharib Museums, maybe it's not your traditional kind of museum.

06:41You focus a lot on the narrative.

06:43It's a narrative storytelling museum, more than artifact based museum.

06:47For example, we have bimonthly very active program,

06:52which is the Science Cafe in collaboration with CEDRA, for example.

06:56We have a research program with Hamad bin Khalifa University.

06:59So we try to diverse our offering,

07:03because lots of initiatives happening here in Kabul.

07:06And finally, how do you see Masharib Museums continuing to stay relevant

07:10as the world modernizes?

07:12I think it's very important, especially through programming,

07:17to be relevant within the community.

07:19As long as the programs and the initiatives that we keep organizing

07:24are part of what interests people,

07:27I think this will make museums relevant to the evolving and changing communities.

07:33At the end of the day, our role is not only to showcase history,

07:39but also to be part of history.

07:45From forgotten worlds under Qatar's sands

07:48to treasure troughs in its coastal waters,

07:50Joanna Hoos gets her hands and feet wet at the Al-Zubara archaeological site

07:54to explore Qatari history submerged in the Arabian Gulf.

07:59At first glance, this beach on Qatar's northwestern coast

08:04might not seem all that remarkable.

08:06But dig a little deeper, literally and figuratively,

08:09and hidden under the glistening waters,

08:11you will find traces of a bygone era,

08:13remnants of the ancient coastal town of Al-Zubara,

08:16a settlement that was once at the heart of Qatar's pearl trade.

08:20Today's dive in Al-Zubara's past is organized by Qatar Museums and UNESCO

08:26in collaboration with Seashore and the Poseidon Dive Center.

08:29The open day offers curious minds from Qatar's diving community,

08:32which is also known as Al-Zubara.

08:33Today's dive in Al-Zubara's past is organized by Qatar Museums and UNESCO

08:35in collaboration with Seashore and the Poseidon Dive Center.

08:37The open day offers curious minds from Qatar's diving community a rare chance to get hands-on

08:52and learn how to uncover, document, and preserve the country's underwater cultural heritage.

08:58The day is open today,

09:01and we are on the open day,

09:03with technical help from the ocean to the ocean.

09:05And also the water needs of the ocean,

09:07and the air force of the ocean.

09:08The most common sense of the ocean is

09:14the marine boats, sand, and the sand,

09:18which is based on the sea,

09:20from the ocean or the sea.

09:22The ocean is also used to be used to work.

09:23The ocean is used to work,

09:26В Урши Хедия, в Урши Хедиях, участвовали в Урши Назарии,

09:30и сегодня они участвовали для того, чтобы участвовать в Урши Назарии.

09:37В Урши Хедиях, это одна из наших сотрудничества с Катаром.

09:48Мы поддерживаем и поддерживаем не только государство, но и общество.

09:53Урши Хедиях, это все обеспечиваются в Урши Хедиях и в Урши Хедиях.

10:01У Зубара была первая известна как археологическая ламп-марк в 1950-е,

10:05и получила статус УНЕСКО в Урши Хедиях в 2013.

10:09Это Катар самый крупный хедиях, но только часть города в Урши Хедиях,

10:14оставив много для дрыжки, или дрыжки, на землю и на землю.

10:18Мы не добавим все информации или рассмотрим в любом месте,

10:22мы оставим что-то для будущего.

10:24Это очень большой муку, и есть образы, и есть труды для миловки в районе.

10:30И мы предлагаем муку, и мы поддерживаем муку в ламп-маке,

10:34в ламп-маке, в экономической стране, в сиахе.

10:37И все время приведут эти муку,
