The earliest evidence of human presence in Kuwait is the existence of Mesolithic tools, dating from about 8,000 B.C. found in Burgan and Wafra. There are no signs of a later Neolithic culture in Kuwait.

However, excavations on the Kuwaiti island of Failaka strongly suggest that Failaka was part of the Bronze Age Dilium civilization and a center of international trade between 2200 and 1800 B.C.

The Battle of Chains was won by the Muslim warrior Khalid Ibn Al-Walid against Persians in the Name of Islam at Kadhima on the north side of Kuwait Bay in 632. For a thousand years thereafter Kuwait was part of a nameless region. Then the seeds of nationhood were planted when ancestors of old Kuwait families arrived to establish their settled community.
