Last Saturday, April 15, 2023 AD / Ramadan 24, 1444 AH, the Heritage Authority of the Ministry of Culture announced the discovery of the first Dadanian inscriptions and the monitoring of a new archaeological site in the Dulaimiyya Center in Qassim. 2023, and this new inscription is one of the evidences confirming the historical depth of the region. It consists of two commemorative inscriptions, one written in the early Dadani script, and the other in the late Dadani script. It was found on the front of two rocks at the Dulaimiyya site. Its discovery indicates the road connecting Dadan and Al-Faw south of the Riyadh region, as was found in One of its rocks contains a short Thamudic inscription.
And in returning to the political record of the Kingdom of Dadan in Al-Ula in Medina and Tabuk, according to the classification of the professor of ancient writings, d. Suleiman Al-Dhieb in some of his books that the political history of Dadani goes back to:
– Early Dadan to 1000-500 BC.
The political history of the late Dadan Kingdom, 500-100 BC.
From another cultural record, according to what was mentioned by the Heritage Authority for the cultural links between Dadan and Al-Faw, south of Riyadh, and as some sources mention, the date of the Al-Faw excavation dates back to the period of 300 BC. This is a cultural link to the cities of the center of the Arabian Peninsula, and the discovery of the Al-Dadaniyah inscription in Dulaimiyya reflects the extent of cultural and commercial communication between the ancient Arab kingdoms before Islam in the first millennium before Islam, and thus linked the Kingdom of Lihyan Al-Dadaniya in Al-Ula, Medina, and Tabuk in the north of the Kingdom and the Arabian Peninsula, and between the Kingdom of Kinda, south of Riyadh. Central Arabia.
Al-Daylamiyah is located near the “Shuaib Al-Dulaimiyya” stream, which begins as a stream from Jabal (Al-Raha / Al-Raha) and then feeds Wadi Abu Nakhla, one of the tributaries of Wadi Al-Rama, where it empties directly into Al-Rama, opposite the center of Ibn Aqil’s Palace in Al-Rass on the southern bank of Wadi Al-Rama.
