The Fujairah Museum is situated south of the fortress, opposite the Ruler's citadel. Displays at the Fujairah Museum include relics found in archeological billets at Qidfa and Bithnah. Local and foreign archeologists have revealed antiques dating back to near the beginning of the Bronze Age, over 4,500 years ago. Displays at the Fujariah Museum comprise pieces made of bronze, steel, brass, silver and gold. Bronze and Iron Age weapons, tinted earthenware, engraved soapstone vessels and pre-Islamic silvery coins. The newest addition to the exhibit is Herbs and Folkloric Medicine. A wonderful unearthing in Qadfaa during archeological excavations is an ostrich's egg dating back 2200 years. The egg was used by home ancestors as a bowl and is still in very good state.
