Research description
The label organizes tomb, ceramic and settlement evidence. It is neither an ancient self-designation nor a single people, and the later phase is notably uneven across central Oman.
Properties and assignments
A label’s definition and the evidence for assigning it here are separate.
Archaeological label, not ethnicity
Marks a modern archaeological phase or assemblage that must not be treated as an ancient people.
Why does this record have this property?
The phase groups material and chronological evidence but does not identify one self-designated people or a fixed territory.
