History of Bahrain

E-mail Print PDF

Bahrain has a rich history that dates back several thousand years. International archaeologists have found that Bahrain has been inhabited for at least theBahrain History last 70,000 years, and there is evidence of two distinct civilizations, Dilmun and Tylos, 2,000 years apart. Dilmun was a Bronze Age trading empire that lasted about 2,000 years. Its strategic position on the Mesopotamia/Indus Valley trade route meant that it became a watering place for ships carrying goods and it soon became a strategic trading post with well-developed social systems.

As a spring-watered garden land, Dilmun stood out in contrast to the deserts around. In Babylonian Epic of Filfamesh, Dilmun has been descrived as 'paradise', where there is a constant abundance of sweet water and the brave and the wise enjoy eternal life.
