Abstract

This paper aims to present the results of the rescue excavations conducted at the site of "Wali Yosha" northeast the Shawbak castle. It first presents a brief about the history and definition of Islamic shrines followed by a short introduction to the history of human settlements in the Shawbak area. The second part of the paper includes an introduction about the site and a discussion of the results of the rescue excavations and the archaeological finds. The pottery shards found at the site indicate that the principle period of occupation at Wali Yosha is the later Islamic period, mainly the Ayyubid-Mamluk (12th – 16th c. AD).

Abstract

Survey work was carried out in the region of Mushash Hudruj near the Jordanian- Saudi borders in 2004, 2005 and 2009. The finds of this project include a north Arabian inscription, a cairn, an animal trap, stone circles, flint mines and water harvesting systems. These features demonstrate that this region was utilized by pastoral nomads who depended purely on a mobile subsistence pattern, governed by the availability of pasture and water. This pattern of seasonal movement is still practiced by modern Bedouin who move mainly within the wadi system which have become the main areas of attraction for Bedouin since prehistoric times, and have played a major role in the survival of these groups and their flocks.
