A long and rich sequence of archaeological discoveence of archaeological discoveries demonstrates the significance of the Arab world as one of the leading centers for the development and evolution of human culture. The early beginnings of food production, the rise of ancient civilizations and the emergence of Islam are the landmarks in the story of the development of world civilizations In spite of the presence of few publications focusing on some parts of the Arab World, the need for a pan-arab scholarly journal can not be overstated. Adumatu is dedicated to be a scientific forum for the publication of archaeological research and related subjects.
