Sabaean inscriptions

Sabaean inscriptions are ancient writings created by the Sabaeans, an ancient civilization that thrived in what is now Yemen around 1000 BCE to 500 CE. These inscriptions are typically carved or engraved on stone and reveal information about their language, governance, religious beliefs, and daily life. Written in the Sabaean script, a form of South Arabian alphabet, they provide valuable insights into their culture and history. Today, these inscriptions help researchers understand the civilization's achievements, trade, and religious practices, serving as important archaeological and linguistic resources.
