An archaeological expedition headed by P.V. Glob in 1953 discovered that 5,000 years ago, the independent tribe of Dilmun was residing at the Island of Bahrain. Among the findings were hundreds of coin shaped stamp seals of stone. Signs from these seals were formed to a 'cartoon' inspired by the heroic poem Gilgamesh. Extensive footage from archaeological sites and current Bahrain.
