Ancient (or Old) South Arabian is the name for a group of Southern Semitic languages of the South of the Arabian peninsula (Minaean, Sabaic, ...). It is written in a script with the same name, developed straight from Proto-Sinaitic.

Trismegistos should have almost all inscriptions on the basis of the information of our partner The Digital Archive for the Study of Pre-Islamic Arabian inscriptions (DASI). Several hundreds of palm leaves have been also been found, but are not yet fully covered.
