The aim of this paper is to reconsider the date of Riffa type burial mounds of the Early Dilmun period by introducing new radiocarbon data from Wadi al-Sail in Bahrain.　Wadi al-Sail is a wadi on the inland plateau of Bahrain. Hundreds of Riffa type burial mounds are scattered along the wadi. The authors have been excavating Wadi al-Sail since 2015.　Previous studies suggest that construction of Riffa type burial mounds began around 2200 or 2250 BCE. In our excavations, nine twig charcoal samples were collected and radiocarbon dated. The new data suggest that the beginning of construction of Riffa type burial mounds at Wadi al-Sail could date back to around 2300 BCE or much earlier. The new data are very important not only for dating burial mounds in Bahrain but also for the study of Dilmun’s history.
