Unlike Islamic-period literary sources, this material was produced by practitioners of traditional Arabian religion; the inscriptions are eyewitnesses to the religious life of Arabian nomads prior to the spread of Judaism and Christianity across Arabia. The author attempts to reconstruct this world using the original words of its inhabitants, interpreted through comparative philology, pre-Islamic and Islamic-period literary sources, and the archaeological context.Ancient Languages and Civilizations ;1.A Reconstruction Based on the Safaitic InscriptionsReligionPhilosophyReligionReligionStudy and teachingReligionPhilosophy.Religion.ReligionStudy and teaching.210Al-Jallad Ahmad1111062NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910568186003321The Religion and Rituals of the Nomads of Pre-Islamic Arabia3027569UNINA
