The Seminar for Arabian Studies is the only international forum which meets annually for the presentation of the latest academic research in the humanities on the Arabian Peninsula (including archaeology, epigraphy, numismatics, ethnography, language, history, art, architecture, etc) from the earliest times to the present day or, in the case of political and social history, to the end of the Ottoman Empire (1922). Up to 50 papers are now presented each year. Papers read at the Seminar are published in the Proceedings of the Seminar for Arabian Studies (ISSN 0308-8421) in time for the Seminar the following year. The Proceedings therefore contain new research on Arabia and reports of new discoveries in the Peninsula in a wide range of disciplines.
