Abstract

Les recherches sur les bijoux anciens de l’Arabie du sud sont relativement limitées par rapport aux autres catégories d’objets. Les bijoux ont été découverts en tant que mobilier funéraire et la plupart des tombes ont fait l’objet de pillage. La collection de bijoux provenant de Kharibat Hamdām est le fruit de fouilles illégales effectuées dans un petit temple funéraire ou mausolée non loin de l’ancien site de dans la zone d’al-Jawf. La datation des bijoux a été possible à partir de la comparaison d’objets connus et de bijoux sculptés en relief sur les sculptures sudarabiques contemporaines.

Abstract

Research on ancient South Arabian jewellery has been relatively limited in comparison to other categories of material culture. Jewellery has been discovered mainly as funerary goods and tombs have often been the object of looting. The Kharibat Hamdān jewellery collection was illegally excavated in a small funerary temple or mausoleum around the ancient site of , in the al-Jawf area. The dating of the jewels has been possible from comparisons with known individual pieces and from jewels carved in relief on coeval South Arabian sculptures.
