About three hundred inscriptions have come down to us from the earliest historical period of the Jawf region of Yemen, the written legacy of the five city-states which flourished in this northernmost area of Ancient South Arabia between the 8th and the early 6th century BCE. Apart from few inscriptions in Sabaic, due to the political relations with Saba?, those texts are mainly written in the local Minaic language. The glossary of this epigraphic corpus, consisting of a lexicon of attested words and a list of the proper names with cultural-historical commentary, provides a comprehensive overview of the Minaic language in its earliest phase.
