Tawam (Arabic: تَوَام, romanized: Tawām),[5] also Tuwwam,[2][3] Tu'am, or "Al-Buraimi Oasis" (Arabic: وَاحَة ٱلْبُرَيْمِي, romanized: Wāḥat Al-Buraymī),[4][6] is a historical oasis region in Eastern Arabia that stretched from, or was located between, the Western Hajar Mountains to the Persian Gulf coast, nowadays forming parts of the United Arab Emirates and western Oman. It is marked by the twin settlements of Al Ain and Al-Buraimi on the UAE-Omani border.[1]
