[QUOTE]Originally posted by Yom: [QB] @Supercar: I don't have time to respond in full right now, but this is what I found as to the date of ESA. According to Norbert Nebes: [QUOTE]The earliest Sabaic inscriptions appear some time in the [b]8th cent. B.C.[/b], while the first (longer) written documents in Sabaic that [b]can be dated reliably on the basis of **synchrony** with *Assyrian sources** go back to the beginning of the 7th cent. B.C.[/b][/QUOTE]This is again from Encyclopaedia Aethiopica, article "Epigraphic South Arabian" (I had assumed it was in a yet unpublished volume on inscriptions). It seems I was right regarding the chronology's relation to Assyrian sources. He also notes: [QUOTE]The first Minaic inscriptions appear, even though [b]in smaller numbers, of **the same time as the first Sabaic texts.[/b][/QUOTE]Update: apparently the article is just on the languages, so I can't add much more info from the article of use to us here. [/QB][/QUOTE]
