„Les 14e Rencontres Sabéennes et la publication de ses actes apportent donc quantité d’informations nouvelles das les études sudarabiques malgré l’arret des trauvaux de terrain au Yémen. Ces apports concernent plus particulièrement le domaine des échanges culturels entre différentes régions et groupes humains à travers plusieurs domaines d’étude. L’archéologie contribue à ce thème par l’analyse des pétroglyphes de la région de Najran, par l’étude architecturale des remparts de Sumhuram, par l’examen des formes céramiques de Sumhuram, l’étude des jarres de stockage sudarabiques et des figurines en terracotta de la région de Ma’rib. L’épigraphie met égalment en évidence des contacts et des évolutions grace aux études linguistiques et grace au contenu des textes sudarabiques (synchronismes aidant á la datation des royaumes, d’ouvrages de construction, onomastique et vocabulaire éclairant la domestication du cheval en Arabie du Sud). Enfin, des études scientifiques permettent de déterminer l’orgine de roches prélevées sur le terrain, soulignant ainsi les contacts entre différentes régions.“<br/><br/>Von: Solène Marion de Procé<br/>In: Syria 94 (2017), S. 402-404.
