[QUOTE]Originally posted by Supercar: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Xross Breed: This here is BS if Munro-Hay was indeed quoting and referencing Schneider's work: ""Inscriptions found at some of these sites include the names of persons bearing the traditional South Arabian title of mukarrib, apparently indicating a ruler with something of a priest-king status, not otherwise known in Ethiopia (Caquot and Drewes 1955). Others have the title of king, mlkn (Schneider 1961; 1973). [b]Evidently the pre-Aksumite Sabaean-influenced cultural province did not consist merely of a few briefly-occupied staging posts, but was a wide-spread and well-established phenomenon." - S. Munro Hay[/b]. That bolded part is BS, because it is no longer accepted and that was *NOT* Schneider's position, though Munro-Hay references him to prove an opposite point. Bottom line, influences went both ways.[/QUOTE]Your assessment is the BS, because Munro-Hay did not state that the above highlighted piece is Schneider's assessment. He in fact, quoted two other scholars, in additioned to several other things he mentioned earlier, to make the assessment [highlighted] above. [/QB][/QUOTE]
