RIYADH: The Saudi Post (SPL) on Thursday issued a SAR3 commemorative stamp on the occasion of the AlUla World Archeology Summit, the Saudi Press Agency said.
Saudi Post stamps are issued based on the most significant national or international events and occasions, making them an ideal choice for stamp collectors and historians worldwide.
Organized by the Royal Commission for AlUla, the three-day summit which opened Sept. 13, brought together more than 300 participants, including government officials, scholars, and specialists from all over the world.
Global art, culture and heritage experts are among more than 80 speakers.
The event’s program of panels, discussions and excursions is held at Maraya Concert Hall, the ancient region’s giant mirror-cladded multipurpose venue located amid a wealth of archaeological treasures stemming from the Neolithic era to the early 20th century.
AlUla is an ancient oasis city located in Saudi Arabia's northwestern province of Madinah, which is now being developed as a premier tourism destination.
