Abstract

an archaeological sequence excavated in the south-western part of site FAYNE1 at Jebel Faya in the Central Region of Sharjah Emirate. Work between 2009 and 2013 exposed six archaeological horizons (AHs) and enabled a stratigraphic connection of AHs IV–VI from Faya Shelter with assemblages A, B, and C from the recently published Faya Terrace sequence. No stratigraphic correlation with the terrace sequence is possible for AH I–AH III. While the number of artefacts in AHs I and III is currently too small to gain meaningful characterizations of lithic assemblages, AHs II, IV, V, and VI add important data to the record of Late Pleistocene archaeology in south-east Arabia. Lithic technology in AH II
