Contents:
At the beginning of Sabaean studies in the last quarter of the 19th century, scholars noticed words in the inscriptions which had parallels not in classical Arabic but in the dialects of Yemen. Experts including David Heinrich Müller, Eduard Glaser and Carlo de Landberg paid particular attention to lexical links between the extinct and extant languages of southern Arabia.
Peter Behnstedt (1992-2006) undertook the task of extracting the words from Yemeni dialects as contained in the diaries of Eduard Glaser who had already pointed to parallels in the ancient inscriptions. (p. 90)
