Doha, Qatar: Qatar Museums (QM) announced a series of open days at two significant archaeological excavation sites, Ain Mohammed and Mesaika, in northern Qatar, to take place on Feb. 15, March 1, and March 15.
QM invited the public to partake in these unique opportunities to explore the archaeological sites which are part of the "Landscapes of Faith" research project.
The open days will feature guided tours, allowing visitors to engage directly with archaeologists and learn about recent discoveries. Visitors will also have the opportunity to try their hand at excavation and see archaeological finds up close.
In this context, Director of the Archaeology Department at QM, Faisal Al Naimi said, "these open days represent an important opportunity for the public to connect with Qatar's rich cultural heritage, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of history. We want to bring awareness about the importance of learning about our past and preserving archaeological sites in Qatar, as well as encourage community involvement in their conservation."
