Votive plaque inscribed with Sabaean dedication

Votive plaque inscribed with Sabaean dedication. Dimensions: H. 10 7/8 × W. 6 × D. 1/2 in. (27.6 × 15.2 × 1.3 cm). Date: ca. late 1st millennium B.C.. This votive plaque with a raised border around its edges has a Sabaean dedicatory inscription. While the worship of aniconic images was widespread among South Arabian cultures, the precise significance of the inscription as a cult object is uncertain. The practice of dedicating the inscription itself, as opposed to placing the inscription on an object intended for dedication, is a departure from the contemporary customs of greater Mesopotamia and Iran.
