[QUOTE]Originally posted by Xross Breed: [QB] Some more data. "G. Hancock didn't outline the basis of J. Pirennes argument, but considering that she is one of the foremost scholars in interpreting ancient South Arabian inscriptions (she started publishing in the 1950s) it seems natural to assume that she was addressing the problem of the sudden appearance in South Arabia of Epigraphic or Monumental South Arabian (MSA) writing. This pre-Aksumite MSA script also occurs in Ethiopia, however in South Arabia, there is apparently little evidence showing evolution in the lettering style. Archaeologists expect to see such an evolution if the writing was developed locally. Perhaps J. Pirenne has found this missing evolutionary period in Ethiopia? If so then I suppose the scholars in this field should rename the MSA script as MNE (Monumental North Ethiopian)?" http://www.geocities.com/~dagmawi/History/Sabean.html [/QB][/QUOTE]
