Julius Euting's arduous 1883 northern Arabia expedition reveals crucial Aramaic and Nabataean inscriptions through detailed notebooks and original watercolors.
Julius Euting (1839-1913), a pioneering German scholar, made significant contributions to Punic, Hebrew, and Aramaic studies. After moving to Strasbourg in 1872, Euting embarked on a perilous 1883 expedition to northern Arabia with Charles Huber, aiming to collect ancient texts and investigate archaeological sites. Despite a strained relationship, Euting's detailed notebooks, rich with observations, anecdotes, and original watercolours, provide a crucial record of Aramaic and Nabataean inscriptions. This book presents Euting's work in English for the first time, featuring his artwork and William Facey's introduction, which re-evaluates Euting's role in the discovery of the Tayma Stele and contextualises his journey in 19th-century Arabian exploration.
