Few cylinder seals have been reported from the Oman Peninsula; nevertheless, the existence of a local cylinder seal production has been suggested. Less than 40 seals and sealings are presently published and the addition of seals to the known repertory and the analysis of their iconography can shed new light on the SE-Arabian society and its relations with neighboring regions. This contribution presents seven cylinder seals that have been excavated at Kalba K4, Tell Abraq and Mleiha in Sharjah Emirate, UAE.
