This article discusses the trilobate arrowheads excavated at ed‐Dur during the different campaigns. Special emphasis is placed on the trilobate or three‐lobed type of arrowhead because these appear rather suddenly and are not widespread in southeastern Arabia. The broader cultural, geographical and historical framework of these arrowheads is sketched in order to place the ed‐Dur material in context.
