Abstract

This paper presents the conservation strategy recently developed and implemented at Al Zubarah Archaeological Site in northern Qatar. The assessment of earlier conservation measures, historic building materials, and techniques as well as current environmental conditions provides the basis for the applied conservation strategy and consolidation methods. The paper briefly presents the environmental conditions and general approaches to protect the site, and focuses on the consolidation of architectural remains excavated in the town of Al Zubarah.
