Reflections on prehistoric life at Umm an-Nar (Trucial Oman) based on faunal remains from the third millennium BC. In: M. Taddei (ed.), South Asian archaeology 1977. Papers from the Fourth International Conference of South Asian Archaeologists in Western Europe, Naples 1979.
Naples, Istituto Universitario Orientale, Seminario di Studi Asiatici Series Minor 6: 589-638. 13 figs.
–Describes dugong remains from Umm an-Nar (591, 597-601, 604, 606, 634). Notes that the tusks were not utilized, nor, apparently, were dugongs venerated or depicted in art. Though dugongs and green turtles are the most abundant species at he site, it is thought that Umm an-Nar did not represent a "dugong-turtle hunting culture", because trade and not hunting/fishing was probably the main economic activity at the site.
