Son emplacement, son apparence et ses dates d'occupation ressemblent à ces «enigmatic settlements» précédemment étudiés dans la région. Le site nouvellement localisé s'ajoute au corpus de peuplements de fonction inconnue apparaissant à la fin de la période romaine / byzantine dans le désert oriental. Ce rapport préliminaire propose une hypothèse sur la fonction du site et note, avec inquiétude, à quel point l'actuelle exploitation non réglementée des ressources naturelles dans la région représente une menace imminente pour sa préservation. 22022-01-0120222022-01-01Articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://ddd.uab.cat/record/322077reponame:Dipòsit Digital de Documents de la UABinstname:Universitat Autònoma de BarcelonaInglésengopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Aquest document està subjecte a una llicència d'ús Creative Commons.
