1. Many people have provided information and support for this research project. Sheikh Hamad bin Mohammed al-Sharqi (Ruler of Fujairah, Member of the Supreme Council) kindly permitted the study of rock art sites in the Emirate of Fujairah. His encouragement for this and other projects by the author is greatly appreciated. The Department of Archaeology, Sharjah Emirate and Dr Sabah Jasim have been most helpful and supportive of this project. Mr Essa Abbas (Sharjah Archaeological Museum) has given up much of his time to show the author various rock art sites located in Sharjah. I am also thankful to the Department of Antiquities in Ras al-Khaimah Emirate: Mr Christian Velde, Ms Imke Möllering, Mr Ahmed Hilal, and Ms Beatrice de Cardi, have provided much encouragement. Through their help many of the petroglyphs in Wadi Daftah have been recovered and saved from destruction. Dr Walid Yasin al-Tikriti kindly granted permission for Qidfa material to be discussed and illustrated in this paper. His help is very much appreciated. Ms Katia Davis assisted in the recording of a large number of petroglyphs at Wadi al-Hayl during the winter of 1999. Katia's help and advice is much appreciated. Mr Salah Ali from Fujairah Museum provided information concerning two rock art sites in Fujairah Emirate. Mr Carl Phillips has been most helpful by kindly providing information concerning material from his excavations in Kalba (Sharjah). Ms Karen Cooper helped by contacting members of the Emirates Natural History Group (ENHG), which ultimately led to the notification of sites. The following members of the ENHG helped by providing information concerning rock art sites: Mr Gary Feulner, Mr Allan Carruth, Mr Brien Holmes, Mr Dick Hornby, and Mrs Anne Hornby. Mr Allestree Fisher (ENHG) organised a trip to the rock art site at Hatta, and kindly allowed the author to accompany the group. Mr Peter Hudson and Ms Marijcke Jongbloed provided helpful information concerning the rock art in Wadi Ashwani. Mr Allan Kelly first recorded the site in Wadi Ziqt and brought it to the author's attention. Mr Peter Hellyer has, as always, been very supportive of my work. Dr Mark Beech must be thanked for creating a wonderful rock art map. My parents gave up much of their holiday time to help investigate and record rock art sites, and I am most grateful. Abdullah Suhail al-Sharqi has been dragged to more rock art sites (in all sorts of weather conditions) than he would like to remember. His help and encouragement have been vital. All photographs were taken by the author, except for , which were taken by Ms Georgia Britton, and by Abdullah Suhail Al Sharqi. These are reproduced here by kind permission. Finally, the main aim of this paper was to provide researchers with a starting point for further rock art research. Many of these sites are under threat from mining and development projects. It would be a shame to lose such a vast and interesting corpus of archaeological material Figures 2, 45, and 67 Figure 38
