Set in a spectacular desert landscape south of modern emirate, the site known as Saruq Al Hadid is an archaeological treasure trove first discovered in 2002 by His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.

The site is an important archaeological find which shows that Dubai did not become a centre of trade only in the 21st century, or after the development of the Dubai Creek.

The Saruq Al Hadid site, preserved by the dunes that covered it for millennia before being discovered, provides ample evidence that the emirate had strong trade links with a wide swathe of the ancient world — from Egypt to the Indian subcontinent, dating as far back thousands of years.

Today, experts consider Saruq Al Hadid as the jewel in the crown of Dubai’s archaeology, a site of international significance that increases he understanding of industrial activity, trade and everyday life during the Iron Age.

How did they arrive at that conclusion? Some 12,000 pieces of archaeological pieces were found here so far, making it one of the largest and most important Iron Age sites in the Arabian Peninsula.

Together, these items tell a compelling history of Dubai's past, through which archeologists are able to map the trading links that existed between Dubai and other countries in the region during the Iron Age.

These priceless Sarouq Al Hadeed pieces are now on display in a museum in Shandagha, Bur Dubai.

From a model house found at Harappa, we can see that windows may have had wooden shutters with grilles (barred openings) to let in air and light. All that are left today are the ground floors of houses that once had two or three floors. Stairs led to the upper floors and roof. Walls were covered with mud plaster.Houses in the Indus cities. Wealthy Indus Valley families lived in comfortable houses built around courtyards. ... Although there was not much furniture, the homes had wells for water and bathrooms with pipes that carried waste into the main drains. Some even had toilets, which were the first in the world.
