Ammap - Amman Archaeological Project
Welcome to the Amman Archaeological Project
The Amman Archaeological Project, short ammap, investigates the northern Transjordan Plateau, known as the Iron Age Kingdom of Ammon. Its focused subprojects explore diverse aspects of the region’s material culture, including statues of kings, gods, and humans, burial practices, and monumental towers in the hinterland known as rujm. A key component of the project is the renewed archaeological excavations on the lower terrace of the Citadel.
