Abstract

This paper deals with a new Ancient North Arabian (ANA)-Safaitic inscription from the north-eastern basaltic region of Jordan. Its author registers a revenge-taking action for a man called S1 TR. In contrast to the usual type of Safaitic inscriptions that deal with revenge, we encounter here a case of revenge in which the Arabian goddess Allāt is called for s2 hdt ‘testimony’. The onomastic and lexical components, with special focus on the lexeme s2 hdt and its semantic field, are investigated and analyzed in light of the Semitic lexicon.

本文论述的是约旦东北部玄武岩地区出土的一件新的古北阿拉伯（ANA）-萨菲提克（Safaitic）铭文。碑文作者记录了一个名为 S1 TR 的人的复仇行动。与常见的萨菲提克碑文中涉及复仇的类型不同，我们在这里遇到的是一个复仇案例，其中阿拉伯女神 Allāt 被称为 s2 hdt "见证"。我们将根据闪米特语的词典，研究和分析其中的拟声词和词汇成分，并特别关注词素 s2 hdt 及其语义领域。
