Umm Al Maa

Umm Al Maa (also rendered Umm Al-Maa / Ummal-Maa in some transliterations) is recorded in modern reference sources as an archaeological site in northwest Qatar, within the administrative bounds of Al Khor and close to the border with Al Shamal. The site's primary significance in the available sources is archaeological: it is reported to contain an ancient cemetery that is thought to date to the Bronze Age. Beyond this attribution, the supplied materials do not provide details on excavations, finds, or a history of investigation, nor do they describe current site management, access restrictions, or conservation status. The provided sources contain no accounts of paranormal phenomena, apparitions, hauntings, named spirits, or local supernatural traditions connected to Umm Al Maa. Where the name overlaps with similarly transliterated places elsewhere (for example a study referencing an Ummal-Maa lake in Libya), the sources supplied here do not link those unrelated places to the Qatari archaeological site and caution against conflating them. All interpretive claims in the available material are archaeological (the cemetery's probable Bronze Age date); no folkloric or paranormal explanations are recorded in the provided documents.
