After 2014–2015 field season BMH2 is going to assume a more defined profile within the Iron Age of Southeast Arabia. According to the material culture the village was at its best during the Early Iron Age ii, between 1100–600 bce. During this long time span a complex local society took place thanks to coastal exploitation, agricultural activities and trade. Nonetheless, the transitional periods between the Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age i as well as the end of the Early Iron Age and the beginning of the Late Iron Age should be the objects of future excavations.

Archaeological evidence and historical accounts have been used to examine the impact of trade and ecology on the decline of West African iron industries. Environmental changes including an increasingly desiccating climatic shift and widespread deforestation as a direct result of fuel procurement over centuries of iron-smelting and European coastal exploitation, seriously affected the survivability of these industries. While the increasing importation of European iron bars and other manufactured goods necessitated a certain amount of technological innovation, the only viable long-term response and adaptation to the ecological devastation became the increased reliance on imported supplies of iron.

This study evaluates the influence of coastal structures on coastal morphology near Hsin-Chu fishery harbor in the northwest of Taiwan. As a result, the downdrift side has undergone local erosion due to the longshore sediment was impounded at updrift breakwaters resulting the enhancement of coastal flood risks as well as deterioration of the biological environment. Process and trend analyses were used to assess the effects the coastal exploitation made on the coastal morphology. Environmentally-friendly remedial measure, beach nourishment is proposed. The sediment source supply and the location of beach nourishment were also suggested for achieving the goal of sustainable use in the area.
