Abstract

La 4e de couverture porte : "In our collective memory there still lies the Queen of Sheba, her journey to Jerusalem to meet the wise King Salomon, or the Arabia Felix with its fame associated in the classical world with frankincense and other precious aromas. Nevertheless the history of the Arabia Felix, the country of the Queen of Sheba, is not well known to a wider public.At the beginning of the 1st millennium BC, in south-western Arabia, in the region that today corresponds to the Republic of Yemen, some kingdoms were formed. Their history deserves to be better known. Its desert and ocean protected Arabia Felix from the invasions of hostile armies. Its inhabitants did not remain isolated on their mountains and in their valleys. Their caravans crossed the desert, their ports hosted foreign ships, they had commercial and cultural contacts, by land and by sea, with the whole world. The history of this culture was very long; from the 8th century BC to the 6th century AD: from the Assyrian expansion into the Levant to the Roman empire, from the expedition only planned before his death by Alexander the Great to the failed expedition of Augustus, from Hellenism to the wars between Byzantium and the Persia, and from polytheism to Judaism and Christianity. The events, the characters, the history of art, together with the beliefs of the ancient inhabitants of South Arabia, will be recounted in this book starting from direct written sources: the wealthy corpus of ancient South Arabian epigraphic public texts."

Abstract

Il y a trois mille ans, au pied des hautes terres du Yémen, à l'orée du désert, par la seule maîtrise des crues d'orage, de grandes cités naquirent des sables, entourées de palmeraies, de jardins et de vignobles. La plus connue d'entre elles était Ma'rib, capitale d'un royaume sur lequel aurait régné la mythique reine de Saba, ville célèbre aussi pour ses oasis et sa digue, l'une des plus anciennes merveilles hydrauliques de l'Antiquité. Sur les murs d'enceinte, les piliers des temples, les façades des maisons, les rochers ou les pétioles de palmes, les Sudarabes gravèrent leurs messages, destinés aux dieux et aux hommes, dans une écriture simple et belle comme la naissance du jour. Un photographe et un épigraphiste, spécialistes de l'éctriture sudarabique, ont parcouru ce Yémen encore mal connu pour en rapporter un livre où se conjuguent leurs lectures de la lumière et des pierres.
