Abstract

The T20 Tomb of the al Khudaira archaeological site (Sharjah, UAE) was excavated in February 2020 by the Spanish archaeological mission of the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, with funding from the Sharjah Archaeological Authority. First, burial chamber was excavated. It was filled with five successive layers containing only small fragments of human bones, which seems to prove that the tomb was looted in the distant past. The collapse that concealed the outer perimeter of the burial building was then removed. In this model, the completely emptied burial chamber can be seen, and the beginning of the removal of the exterior collapse. Project ID Al Khudaira 05. 1311 Photos from a Phantom P4 Pro, V2.
