New Nabataean Inscription from al-CUlā

View through CrossRef
This article focused on a Nabataean inscription found in al-cUlā province, northwest of Saudi Arabia. The importance of this inscription, which consists of five lines, lies in the appearance of the noun, singular, masculine, emphatic “wklwƆ” for the first time in Nabataean inscriptions. Its historical significance lies in the period it was written, which was during the thirty-ninth year of the rule of alḥrtt, the King of the Nabateans, one year before his death.
