from 2,000 years ago at the Ed-Dur Site this month found that the graves were made from stones from the sea.Pearls, iron, pottery and glassware were also uncovered, revealing the area’s trading history."Maybe they were used to decorate the entrance of the temple," Ms Al Ghafli says.The newest excavations also uncovered pearls, iron and bronze arrowheads, pottery and glassware.This month at the Ed-Dur Site, one of the largest archaeological sites in the UAE, teams of archaeologists found about 500 tombs that date from around AD 100 near the ruins of stone houses.Alia Al Ghafli, head of the antiquities and heritage department in UAQ, says the graves – which were made of stones from the sea and were rectangular in shape – revealed much about the lives of the inhabitants of the region in those times.Their time in Dubai is considered as a transit phase until they move on to the next destination or go back to their countries.This instability or uncertainty about the next move makes that bunch of people restless and unable to keep a healthy and long-lasting relationship.

For the most part, internet censorship is not overly draconian in the UAE.But in Dubai, finding that person – or just going out on a decent date – is even more difficult for the following reasons.For many expats, Dubai is not the final step in their life’s journey.So, if you fall for someone who is in a "transit phase," either destroy their passport or be ready to smuggle yourself inside their travel bag (not in a creepy way though).If you fall in love with another expat in Dubai and ask them about their background, the only story you will get is their "own version" of the story."The direction of all tombs is north-east, except one is north-west, and all of them were built beside the houses because they believed that life and life after death are one and indivisible," she says.Two stone eagles were also found near a previously discovered temple that is believed to have been used to worship the sun.
