摘要
本文介绍了2022年在Wādī al-Khuḍarī的一个分支中发现的一些新的萨法蒂文铭文,该分支位于al- ruwayshed (H4)西北约35公里的al- -Ḥarrah。其中两个碑文证明了动词ṣlb,意思是“钉死在十字架上”。这是这个动词在埃及文铭文中第四次出现。这个动词在本研究中进行了深入的讨论,因为在萨法蒂铭文的背景下,钉十字架的话题特别有趣,并且一直是学术争论的主题。本研究还对当地居民和研究者用来指称碑刻位置的一些地理术语提供了解释。除了对这些精选文本进行语言学分析外,本文还概述了“Badia铭文调查”(BES)项目,该项目由Michael C. A. Macdonald和Ali Al-Manaser于2015年发起,旨在重新记录约旦Ḥarrah地区的铭文和岩石艺术。作为该项目的一部分,到目前为止已经进行了五个季节的调查。在这些调查中,在约旦巴迪亚拍摄了近40万张照片。这些图像包括铭文的图像和发现文字的地点的图像。其中一些图像是对先前由不同研究人员报告的铭文的重新记录,一些图像包含新的铭文,将被添加到“古代北阿拉伯铭文在线语料库”(OCIANA)数据库中。值得注意的是,在BES项目启动后不久,人们对约旦巴迪亚地区的兴趣开始增加,并在该地区进行了许多铭文和考古调查。此外,约旦政府最近已将约旦Ḥarrah地区列入《世界遗产暂定名录》。
This paper presents some of the new Safaitic inscriptions that were found in 2022 in one of the branches of Wādī al-Khuḍarī, which is in al-Ḥarrah approximately 35 km to the northwest of al-Ruwayshed (H4). Two of these inscriptions bear an attestation for the verb ṣlb, meaning ‘to crucify’. This is the fourth appearance of that verb in Safaitic inscriptions. The verb is thoroughly discussed in this study since the topic of crucifixion in the context of Safaitic epigraphy is of particular interest and has been the subject of scholarly dispute. The present research also provides an explanation for some geographical terms that are used by local residents and researchers to refer to the locations of the inscriptions. Apart from the philological analysis of these selected texts, the paper presents an overview of the ‘Badia Epigraphic Surveys’ (BES) project, which was launched by Michael C. A. Macdonald and Ali Al-Manaser in 2015, and aims to redocument the inscriptions and rock art from the Jordanian Ḥarrah region. As a part of this project, five survey seasons have been conducted so far. During these surveys, nearly 400,000 images from the Jordanian Badia were photographed. These include images of the inscriptions and images of the sites where the texts were found. Some of these images are a redocumentation of inscriptions that were previously reported by various researchers, and some of the images contain new inscriptions that will be added to the ‘Online Corpus of the Inscriptions of Ancient North Arabia’ (OCIANA) database. It is important to note that soon after the launch of the BES project, interest in the Jordanian Badia region began to increase, and many epigraphic and archaeological surveys have been conducted in this region. Furthermore, the Jordanian government has recently registered the Jordanian Ḥarrah region on the Tentative List of World Heritage.
期刊介绍:
In recent years the Arabian peninsula has emerged as one of the major new frontiers of archaeological research in the Old World. Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy is a forum for the publication of studies in the archaeology, epigraphy, numismatics, and early history of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. Both original articles and short communications in English, French, and German are published, ranging in time from prehistory to the Islamic era.
