Welcome to the website of Dr Mark Jonathan Beech, currently Head of Archaeology: Al Dhafra & Abu Dhabi, in the Historic Environment Department at the Department of Culture and Tourism (DCT), formerly known as the Abu Dhabi Tourism and Culture Authority,  based in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates, and Research Associate at the Department of Archaeology at the University of York, U.K.  You can contact me, read my CV, check out press stories relating to my research, read and download many of my publications, visit my photo gallery or see videos in which I appear, or which I filmed.

My goal is to deepen people’s understanding of the archaeology and rich cultural heritage of the United Arab Emirates and south-east Arabia.
