Muweilah (Arabic: مويلح) is an archaeological site in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates. it is located in what is now the suburb of Al Jurainah near Sharjah University City. A large, fortified settlement thought to have been occupied during the Iron Age II period (1,100-600BC), the site has been explored by archaeologists since the discovery of pottery shards by a local resident led to a French survey of the area in 1989 and archaeological work by an Australian expedition in 1994 It has yielded the oldest known example of writing found to date in the UAE, a pottery shard with an inscription, thought to be Sabean, with the letters 'bml'.

| - مويلح هو موقع أثري يقع في الشارقة، الإمارات العربية المتحدة، في ضاحية الجرينة بالقرب من مدينة الشارقة الجامعية. وهو عبارة عن مستوطنة كبيرة محصنة يعتقد أنها كانت مشغولة خلال العصر الحديدي الثاني (1100-600 قبل الميلاد)، تم استكشاف الموقع من قبل علماء الآثار منذ أن بدأت بعثة أسترالية العمل هناك في عام 1994 بعد اكتشاف قطع فخارية من قبل أحد السكان المحليين. وعُثر على قطعة فخارية تحمل ثلاثة خطوط سبئية- وهي أقدم كتابة يتم اكتشافها إلى الآن في دولة الإمارات العربية المتحدة- هو أيضاً نتيجة للاتصال باليمن.

Muweilah is considered to be one of the most significant Iron Age sites in the UAE. Excavations have shown the buildings within the site were damaged by a widespread fire. The first evidence of writing in the UAE was found in this site, on a piece pottery with the three letters of the South Arabic (B, M, L). Muweilah is one of the sites on the UAE's preliminary list to be nominated in the future to the World Heritage List. (en)
