the historical evolution of the ancient industry at Smaragdos, the only known source of beryl in the Roman Empire
according to the classical literary sources. The work focused on the continuation of the excavations in the main
site of Sikait, the documentation of the emerald mines, and conservation interventions. In addition to that, an
intensive topographical survey of different areas of the Wadi el Gemal Park has been conducted. This paper offers
an overview of the preliminary results of the season.

It was destroyed by fire in the second half of the rd century BCE, preserving an important volume of archaeological and bioarchaeological material in certain areas. This is the case of Building G, a two-story construction whose violent blaze has o ered the possibility of analyzing a precise moment in the history of an Iron Age productive unit. The existence of a stable on the lower floor, where four sheep, a goat, and a horse were documented, and an upper floor, where textile production and storage were evidenced, allows us to analyse the complexity of the economic activities and exploitation of local resources, such as livestock, agriculture, forestry and mining.

Often this kind of agricultural elements have not been studied due to a lack of chronological data or territorial context, but in these two cases their close association with the rest of the villae structures has allowed a global analysis of the agricultural practices and the Roman territorial organization.
