OverviewDuring the second half of the 1st millennium BC, the kingdom of Ma'in became one of the main political and commercial players in ancient South Arabia, thanks to its involvement in the incense trade towards the Mediterranean and the Mesopotamian world. The corpus made of over 1300 Minaic inscriptions, spanning from the 6th c. BCE until the decline of the kingdom of Ma'in around the 1st c. BCE, contains more than 3000 occurrences of proper names - persons, families, lineages, tribes, places, gods - which are essential elements for the historical, linguistic and cultural reconstruction of the South Arabian civilization. This volume offers an analytical index of these onomastic items, with their lists of epigraphic occurrences and a commented glossary of the main actors in political, religious and economic history of Ma'in. Together with the Index of the names attested in the inscriptions dated from the 8th-6th c. BCE, that the authors published in this series (Arabia Antica 17/3, 2022), this volume presents the current state of Minaic onomastics.
