TRADITIONAL HOUSE OF THE JEBALLI PEOPLE IN THE SURROUNDINGS OF SALALAH CITY, DHOFAR GOVERNORATE, SULTANATE OF OMAN

Summary/Abstract: The traditional Jeballi house stands as a precious living example of vernacular architecture on the Arabian Peninsula. Its contemporary significance is in its continued use with minimal modifications for centuries. Modern life gradually draws people from the villages to cities, resulting in the abandonment of old houses. Just a few houses still preserve the original way of life today. Studying traditional architecture is essential for understanding Dhofar and Omani culture. Understanding traditional Jebally houses helps in the correct assessment of modern homes, recognizes family life patterns, enriches modern architectural design, and promotes Dhofar and Oman’s heritage.
