| description | Though until recently, prospecting and archaeological excavations have been carried out mostly by foreign expeditions (with the collaboration of the research teams from the Antiquities Department), during the past few years there have been programs in Yemen run exclusively by Yemeni institutions.Simultaneously, a new generation of researchers has appeared who graduated not from foreign universities but received their education at the universities of Sanaa, Aden and Dhamar. Numerous archaeological and historical studies of the pre‑Islamic period of Yemen were published in Arabic. For the first time, such studies adopt a methodology based not on myths and legends but on the strictly scientific data of archeology and epigraphy. Being in conflict with a more traditional school, which still dominates collective mentality and which defends a legendary reading of the history of Yemen before Islam, this new vision of history proposed by Yemeni researchers tends to influence more and more profoundly the Yemeni educated public. |
