A more remarkable find was made in the late 1990s at the Byzantine/Umayyad site of Humaymah, some 60 kilometres north of Aqaba. Here, remnants of three furniture panels with ornately carved depictions of male figures in military dress were excavated and identified as elephant ivory, dated to the mid-8th c. C.E. (Fig. 3).26
