KUWAIT, March 24 (KUNA) -- Kuwait's National Council for Culture, Arts and Letters (NCCAL) has discovered tens of cemeteries and engraved items in a popular eastern resort in the shores of the Arabian Gulf.

The new discoveries are reminiscent of a bronze age culture known as "Um Al-Nar", which existed around 2,500 BC in the area of modern-day United Arab Emirates and northern Oman, the director of NCCAL's department of antiquities and museums, Sultan Al-Duweish, told KUNA on Saturday.
