Skeleton in a foetal position in the burial chamber of a Dilmun tomb, c. 2050 BC, built in dry stone above ground, 1 of 13 middle class, late type mounds, at the Janabiyah Burial Mound Field, part of the Dilmun Burial Mounds site, Janabiyah, Bahrain. The site also includes 5 larger Chieftain Mounds. The Janabiyah tombs were constructed for residents of the villages of Saar and Budaiya. These tombs are at risk, due to the planned construction of a shopping mall. Picture by Manuel Cohen
