On Sunday the new logo for the world fair was unveiled at a ceremony
where it was projected in gold light on to the Burj Khalifa.
The
decision to feature the ring in the logo was made by Sheikh Mohammed bin
Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai, who revealed the Expo 2020
emblem to huge applause from the crowds.
A gold light shines through the centre of the logo with simple circles and loops encircling and swirling around it.
The ring is one of the more recent discoveries of more than
10,000 artifacts, including seals from different regions, daggers,
knives, vases and tools, found by archaeologists over the past three
years.
Sarouq Al Hadeed is among the most important archaeological sites in the region, with artifacts dating back to the Iron Age.
