Detail InformationEdit

The Exhibition of Arab Heritage and Recent Discoveries was opened in 1992, at the Department of Antiquities in Amman. This exhibition aims at introducing Jordan to the Arab cultural heritages throughout the ages, as well as exhibiting recent archaeological discoveries. On display in the exhibition presently are precious artefacts, pottery, glass and weapons dating to the Bronze Age and Nabataean and Roman periods, as well as inscriptions, gold Islamic coins and the silver Ptolemaic hoard recently discovered at Iraq Al-Amir. The exhibition also has some Byzantine and early Islamic mosaics from different regions of the kingdom on display, as well as replicas of architectural elements from the temples of the Winged Lions and Qasr Al-Bint in Petra, and the limestone heads of the water nymphs recently discovered at the Nymphaeum in Amman.
This exhibition is devoted to recent archaeological discoveries from the excavations carried out by the Department of Antiquities of Jordan. The exhibits will be transferred to the various Jordanian museums after the conclusion of their study and publication. The displays are therefore changed annually.
In addition to the exhibits mentioned above, the present exhibition includes a collection of Safaitic and Kufic inscriptions from the area of Mafraq. It is expected that a special exhibition of ancient Arabic inscriptions be opened featuring Nabataean, Kufic and other Islamic inscriptions found in the areas of Shbeikah and Safawi.
