We have been executing archaeological researches of the Rouj Basin from 1990 to 1992. The purpose of this project is to shed some light on the process from early farming villages to the formation of city states. We have been continuing three operations, i. e. intensive general survey, soundings for establishing chronology, and natural scientific studies for the reconstruction of the paleo-environment.The general survey within the basin was almost completed, and we found 33 tells in the Basin. The archaeological map in each period indicated the dynamic settlement patterns of the Basin. Five sounding excavations were carried out at Tell Aray 1, 2, Tell Abd el-Aziz and Tell el-Kerkh 2. There sounding excavations established the chronology from pre-pottery Neolithic to the Early Bronze Age in the Basin. We could get a lot of new archaeological evidences through these sounding excavations.Geologic study clarified some new information on the ancient lake at the central part of the basin. The ancient lake was formed as s salt lake at first, and after that it turned into a fresh-water lake. This fresh-water lake has expanded and contracted repeatedly. The fluctuation of the lake extent was connected with the rise and fall of archaeological sites. We also got much information between human activities and their environment.

1990年至1992年，我们一直在对鲁日盆地进行考古研究。该项目的目的是揭示从早期农耕村庄到城邦形成的过程。我们一直在继续三项行动，即。 e.深入开展普查、测深建立年代学、自然科学研究重建古环境。盆地内普查已基本完成，在盆地内发现了33处遗迹。每个时期的考古地图都显示了盆地的动态聚落模式。在Tell Aray 1、2、Tell Abd el-Aziz 和Tell el-Kerkh 2 进行了五次测深发掘。这些测深发掘确定了盆地从陶器前新石器时代到早期青铜时代的年表。通过这些探空发掘，我们可以获得很多新的考古证据。地质研究澄清了盆地中部古湖泊的一些新信息。古湖最初是盐湖，后来变成了淡水湖。这个淡水湖反复扩大和收缩。湖泊面积的涨落与考古遗址的兴衰有关。我们还获得了人类活动与其环境之间的大量信息。
