title: Zafar, Capital of Himyar, Eighth Preliminary Report, February–March 2009 creator: Yule, Paul subject: ddc-939 subject: Andere Teile der alten Welt bis ca. 640 subject: Other parts of ancient world (Antiquity) [R939] subject: History of the ancient world to ca. 499 [T930] description: Work begun in 2004 continued on the spacious himyarite so-called Stone Building, on the south-western flank of the Husn Raydan mountain. In the ruined city, this is the first fairly intact building to come to light, an ashlar structure surrounding a stone-paved courtyard. Goals included locating the exterior walls, the investigation immediately to the north and the clearing of the courtyard. This year, we cleared the south-eastern part of the courtyard. Our project emphasizes the little-known latter part of late antiquity in a field of study but one hardly developed in South Arabia. date: 2009 type: Article type: info:eu-repo/semantics/article type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: https://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/propylaeumdokhttps://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/propylaeumdok/302/1/Yule_Zafar_Report08_2009.pdf identifier: DOI:10.11588/propylaeumdok.00000302 identifier: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-propylaeumdok-3029 identifier: Yule, Paul (2009) Zafar, Capital of Himyar, Eighth Preliminary Report, February–March 2009. relation: https://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/propylaeumdok/302/ rights: info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess rights: http://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserver/help/license_urhg.html language: ger
