Some of the features of this ritual are discussed in an internal perspective, and outlined through a selection of textual extracts, which help delineate some of the recurring textual formulae, along with the motivations behind these ancient consultations. The recur…

Two new inscriptions from the recently excavated temple of ʿAthtar dhū-Qabḍ in Barāqish (Ancient Minaean Yathill)
Two new inscriptions found during the recent excavation of Temple B in Barāqish are presented here. They give primary information about this temple: the god to whom it is devoted, its construction, the personalities who promoted it and the Minaean sovereign(s) under whom these operations were carried out, thus also enabling us to identify the historical period in which these inscriptions were produced. A reassessment of the building activities in…

The MILK system enhances knowledge discovery and sharing by providing services addressing these aspect…
