Barbar Temple Site

We went to see the Barbar Temple site.

Barbar Temple site is an archeological site located in the village of Barbar, Bahrain, and considered to be part of the Dilmun culture. The three temples were built atop one another with the second built approximately 500 years later and the third added between 2100BC and 2000BC. It’s thought that the temples were constructed to worship the god Enki, the god of wisdom and freshwater, and his wife Nankhur Sak. The temple contains two altars and a natural water spring that is thought to have held spiritual significance for the worshippers

I found it interesting that there was no protection of any kind at this site. People are allowed to wander all over it and do whatever they want. It is rumored that there are old human bones inside the minamal structures at this site but I couldn't find any.
