Eldorado Posted March 19, 2019 #1 Share Posted March 19, 2019 A 2,000-year-old bronze tablet from Yemen, has engraved writing that mentions a lost temple dedicated to a god named "Athtar Ḥarmān," a deity whom scholars have never heard of before. Written in the Sabaic language, in a text known as Sabaean, the bronze inscription reads: "Ilīmataʿ and Khabīʾat, the two servants of Khawliyān offered to Athtar Ḥarmān, the owner of Bana, with a tablet of bronze, their sons and those he will add, for their salvation" (translation by Christian Robin).

Ashotep Posted March 19, 2019 #2 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Imagine there are other gods in ancient times we have never heard of before. Probably because they had few followers. Wonder if Yemen will be demanding this tablet back even if its been in a private collection even before the war broke out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
