Qurayya Oasis, the capital of the Median dynasty, is one of the largest archaeological sites in northwest of Saudi Arabia at which the Saudi-Austrian mission is currently conducting extensive surveys and excavations. The field works yielded 6. Moreover, there was also a distinctive collection of pottery fragments decorated with drawings and multi-colors, beads, pieces of metal and remnants of war tools that included a complete centimeter sword.
The Qurayyah location appears in the right, middle of the above map. It is situated in the eastern Hisma desert, at a point 70 km 43 mi. It is also a stretch to conclude that the biblical Midian was a dynasty, in the true sense of the word. Media, or the Medes, the first of a series of Persian empires, flourished circa BC, much later than the 15 th century BC biblical Midian.
Media was also distant from Midian, lying air miles to the northeast, in what is now, northern Iran. The Medians were defeated about BC by Cyrus the Great, whose Achaemenid empire later expanded to three continents.
But, Peter Parr , 74 later cautioned against applying ethnic labels to pottery styles, considering the lack of known ties between Qurayyah and the Midianites. Connecting Qurayyah and its pottery industry with ancient Midian poses geographical and chronological problems. Qurayyah is relatively distant and isolated from the coastal Midian domain. For instance, Qurayyah is km 65 mi.
