The Seminar for Arabian Studies is the only international academic forum which meets annually for the presentation of research in the humanities on the Arabian Peninsula. It focuses on the fields of archaeology, architecture, art, epigraphy, ethnography, history, language, linguistics, literature, and numismatics from the earliest times to the present day. A wide range of original and stimulating papers presented at the Seminar are published in the Proceedings of the Seminar for Arabian Studies and reflect the dynamism and scope of the interdisciplinary event. The main foci of the Seminar in 2014, in chronological order were the Palaeolithic and Neolithic, Bronze and Iron Ages, Early Historical and Classical periods, Heritage Management, Islamic Archaeology and History. In addition there were sessions on Ethnography, on Language, and with a session dedicated to the Archaeology and History of ancient Yemen. In addition, on the evening of Saturday, 26 July 2014, Professor Lloyd Weeks, Head of the School of Humanities, the University of University of New England, New South Wales, Australia, a long supporter of the Seminar and Foundation, presented the MBI Lecture entitled 'The Quest for the Copper of Magan: how early metallurgy shaped Arabia and set the horizons of the Bronze Age world' and as always provided an informative, interesting and lucid lecture. This volume also includes notes in memoriam on Nigel Groom (1924-2014), 'Arabist, historian, spy-catcher, and writer on perfume'; and on Professor Tony Wilkinson (1948-2014), Professor of Archaeology at the University of Edinburgh (2005-2006) and Professor of Archaeology at Durham University (2006-2014) who specialised in landscape archaeology.
