Abstract

This work comprises a linguistic survey of the Ancient North Arabian (ANA)

epigraphic material from Taymāʾ, conventionally known as Taymanitic

(Macdonald 2000: 28-9). A grammatical sketch, based on the linguistic

features in the Taymanitic corpus is presented, followed by a discussion of the linguistic features of Taymanitic that are relevant to its linguistic classification. Two appendices follow: a compilation of all previously published inscriptions with grammatical content, and a glossary
