ABU DHABI, UAE, Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Zayed National Museum, the national museum of the UAE, announces its inaugural temporary exhibition, Tracks Through Time: The Camel in Society, Trade and Art. The world's first exhibition to comprehensively explore more than 7,000 years of camel history will open early December 2026, coinciding with the museum's first anniversary celebration.
Tracks Through Time examines the camel's role in society, trade networks and creative cultures of the UAE and the wider region, from the earliest evidence of wild camels on this land to the living traditions practised today.
The exhibition will include wild camel bones excavated from the archaeological site of Baynunah in Abu Dhabi dating to the Neolithic Period (4,500-4,000 BCE), on loan from Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi, alongside remains from Al Sufouh in Dubai dating back to the Bronze Age (2,000-1,300 BCE) loaned from Dubai Culture and Arts Authority. This is the first time that detailed evidence of the now-extinct wild camel species will be presented to the public.
Dr. Peter Magee, Director of Zayed National Museum, said: "We are excited to present our first temporary exhibition, which celebrates the camel's profound significance in Emirati culture and the broader story of the UAE. This exhibition represents our mission to deepen understanding of the UAE through original research and meaningful public engagement. Grounded in the latest scientific research and built through collaboration, the exhibition traces the unique archaeological evidence for the presence of wild camels in the UAE thousands of years ago, initial camel domestication in the UAE, camel-human bonds and daily life, culminating in the prestige of Al Hejin camel racing and Mazayna beauty competitions."
Also included are domesticated camel bones from the site of Saruq Al Hadid in Dubai, dating back to the Iron Age (2600–550 BCE) loaned from Dubai Culture and Arts Authority. These remains provide some of the earliest evidence in the world for the taming and rearing of wild camels into a domesticated species.
Other highlights include a rare children's book detailing the different species of camel and their uses dating to the 1840s, examples of rock art depicting camels from Fujairah dating to 3,000 years ago and representations of camels in UAE postage stamps throughout the years. Audiovisual elements will present rare archival photography and film footage alongside recordings of Taghrooda and Alheda'a (camel calling), oral traditions inscribed on UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, and oral testimonies from camel herders and community members.
Tracks Through Time will form part of a wider programme of activities and experiences marking the museum's first anniversary milestone. Visitors will be able to take part in exhibition-related workshops, activities, tours, alongside special anniversary programming across the museum, as well as enjoy a standalone retail offering inspired by the themes of the exhibition.

VIENNA, Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- At NetworkX 2026, Fibocom is showcasing the U6G evolution of its flagship 5G-A FWA module, FG390. Powered by the MediaTek T930 platform, the newly introduced FG390-MEA-30 variant supports U6G (NR n104) and cross-band carrier aggregation with Sub-6GHz, equipping FWA devices for the next phase of 5G-Advanced network evolution.
Upper 6GHz spans 6425 - 7125MHz, providing 700MHz of spectrum with substantial contiguous bandwidth to increase network capacity and throughput. It creates new opportunities for 10-gigabit home broadband, 8K streaming, cloud gaming and immersive AR/VR experiences, as well as enterprise wireless access and smart campus networking.
U6G is moving from technical validation toward commercial deployment worldwide. e& UAE has launched commercial Upper 6GHz network deployment, while Zhejiang Mobile has demonstrated downlink throughput exceeding 10Gbps. European operators are advancing 6GHz spectrum trials and field validation, while markets in Latin America and Central Asia are progressing with live-network testing and use-case validation.
The FG390 adds support for NR n104 and enables U6G to work alongside Sub-6GHz, supporting cross-band carrier aggregation combinations including CA_n41A-n104A and CA_n78A-n104A. Built on the 3GPP Release 18 MediaTek T930 platform, it supports peak 5G downlink speeds of up to 10Gbps. By combining U6G bandwidth with established Sub-6GHz coverage, the module enables higher throughput while maintaining reliable connectivity.
Designed for CPEs, outdoor ODUs and enterprise gateways, the FG390-MEA-30 helps customers simplify product development, streamline certification processes and accelerate time to market.
Evan Su, General Manager of Wireless Communications at MediaTek, stated, "The MediaTek T930 platform is designed to enable high-performance FWA solutions for the next stage of wireless broadband evolution. Working together with Fibocom, we are extending U6G capabilities on T930 and help accelerate 5G-Advanced FWA innovation."
Sunzhi Liu, General Manager of Fibocom's MBB Business Unit, said, "As U6G moves toward commercialization, operators and device makers need to turn new spectrum capabilities into deployable FWA products faster. FG390 provides a flexible path to next-generation FWA development by combining U6G and Sub-6GHz capabilities. We will continue working with MediaTek, global operators and device partners to advance U6G validation and commercialization."
