Abstract

The aim of this work is to analyse the critical cruces about some geographical locations in reference to the western coast and the inland parts of the South Arabian and Nabataean area. In detail, the purpose of this research is to investigate the probable location of the port of Leuke Kome through a comparison between an epigraphic source written in Safaitic and some indication in Strabo’s account of the expedition of Aelius Gallus to Arabia Felix. In addition, a new reading of another Safaitic inscription mentioning a curious S1ly (Silleus?) could help to better understand some details of the Roman Arabian campaign too.

埃利乌斯·加卢斯阿拉伯远征的地理和历史资料比较

这项工作的目的是分析一些地理位置的关键因素，参考西海岸和南阿拉伯和纳巴泰地区的内陆部分。详细地说，本研究的目的是通过比较用萨法蒂亚语写的铭文来源和斯特拉博对埃利乌斯·加卢斯远征阿拉伯菲利克斯的叙述中的一些指示，来调查卢克·科姆港的可能位置。此外，对另一个提到一个奇怪的S1ly (Silleus?)的萨法特铭文的新解读也有助于更好地理解罗马阿拉伯战役的一些细节。

期刊介绍： Erga-Logoi is a peer-reviewed open-access journal of ancient history, literature, law and culture, as broadly conceived in geographical and chronological terms. Evoking Thucydides'' methodological exordium (although in that context the opposition obviously has a different value), the name of the Journal was chosen to reflect its intention of looking at the ancient world paying attention to both “facts” (historical events, artistic production, material culture) and “words” (literary, historical, legal production in its oral and written forms). On these bases, the Journal embraces a unified approach to the ancient world, rejecting sectional perspectives for an interdisciplinary focus, reflecting these complex articulated civilizations. The Journal, published every six months, is open to contributions of a historical, philological, literary, archaeological, artistic, and legal nature. It is multilingual, thereby aiming to foster the development of international debate on the ancient world and its legacy.
