Dilmun Stones

There are over 11,000 Dilmun-era burial mounds in Bahrain

The standing stone is a tying post for sacrificial animals at the Barbar Temple in Bahrain (I'm not sure about the other one).

In the pre-Islamic era Bahrain was home to the Dilmun Civilisation (circa 3000BC).

There are over 11,000 Dilmun-era burial mounds in Bahrain, which is only 750 sq km.
