Semitic Languages
ARAMAIC 61 of the Dead Sea. Although the ninth-century B.C. Moabite inscriptions present the earliest "Hebrew" characters of the alphabetic script, their language cannot be regarded as an Hebrew dialect. f) Edomite 7.9. Edomite, attested by a few inscriptions and seals dated from the 9th through the 4th century B.C., was the Canaanite idiom of southern Transjordan and eastern Negev. Despite our very poor knowledge of the language, palaeography and morphology reveal some specifically Edomite features. B. Aramaic 7.10. Aramaic forms a widespread linguistic group that could be clas sified also as North or East Semitic. Its earliest written attestations go back to the 9th century B.C. and some of its dialects survive until the present day. Several historical stages and contemporaneous dialects have to be distinguished. a) Early Aramaic 7.11. Early Aramaic is represented by an increasing number of inscrip tions from Syria, Assyria, North Israel, and northern Transjordan dating from the 9th through the 7th century B.C. (Fig. 11). There are no impor tant differences in the script and the spelling of the various documents, except for the Tell Fekherye statue and the Tell Halaf pedestal inscrip tion. The morphological variations point instead to the existence of several dialects that represent different levels of the evolution of the language. While the Tell Fekherye inscription (ca. 850 B.C.) seems to testify to the use of internal or "broken" plurals, the two Samalian inscriptions from Zincirli (8th century B.C.) apparently retain the case endings in the plural and have no emphatic state. -
Kiraz 2019 a Functional Approach to Garshunography
Intellectual History of the Islamicate World 7 (2019) 264–277 brill.com/ihiw A Functional Approach to Garshunography A Case Study of Syro-X and X-Syriac Writing Systems George A. Kiraz Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton and Beth Mardutho: The Syriac Institute, Piscataway [email protected] Abstract It is argued here that functionalism lies at the heart of garshunographic writing systems (where one language is written in a script that is sociolinguistically associated with another language). Giving historical accounts of such systems that began as early as the eighth century, it will be demonstrated that garshunographic systems grew organ- ically because of necessity and that they offered a certain degree of simplicity rather than complexity.While the paper discusses mostly Syriac-based systems, its arguments can probably be expanded to other garshunographic systems. Keywords Garshuni – garshunography – allography – writing systems It has long been suggested that cultural identity may have been the cause for the emergence of Garshuni systems. (In the strictest sense of the term, ‘Garshuni’ refers to Arabic texts written in the Syriac script but the term’s semantics were drastically extended to other systems, sometimes ones that have little to do with Syriac—for which see below.) This paper argues for an alterna- tive origin, one that is rooted in functional theory. At its most fundamental level, Garshuni—as a system—is nothing but a tool and as such it ought to be understood with respect to the function it performs. To achieve this, one must take into consideration the social contexts—plural, as there are many—under which each Garshuni system appeared. -

Macdonald (University of Oxford) Abstract Literacy was widespread in large areas of ancient Arabia, as shown by the huge numbers of graffiti by both settled people and nomads. But, it isstill extremely difficult to establish a reliable chronology for the literate periods of pre-Islamic Arabian history. This has led to a misuse of palaeography in an attempt to create chronological sequences based on letter forms from undated inscriptions and documents, on widely different kinds of surface, with different purposes, and often separated by large distances. This prac- tice is not confined to Arabian inscriptions but is widespread in Semitic epigraphy. -
Case in the Qurˀānic Consonantal Text
Case in the Qurˀānic Consonantal Text By MARIJN VAN PUTTEN (Leiden University) and PHILLIP W. STOKES (University of Tennessee) Abstract The nature of the language underlying the Qurˀānic Consonantal Text (QCT) has been a topic of scholarly discussion for well over a hundred years. The traditional position is that this language was essentially identical to that of the pre-Islamic poetry. The mismatch between the language of the reading traditions and the orthography has normally been explained as the result of orthographic conventions such as ‘pausal spelling’. A minority of scholars have challenged this view, suggesting instead that the Qurˀān was originally delivered in a local dialect and only subsequently brought in line with Classical Arabic. Neither permutation of these two positions has been based on the one part of the Qurˀānic text that can, with certainty, be dated back to the early Islamic period, the Qurˀānic Con- sonantal Text. This paper examines the nominal case system of Qurˀānic Arabic. Instead of relying on traditions that developed a century or more after the original composition of the Qurˀān, we rely primarily on the QCT itself, paying special attention to implications of internal rhyme schemata, as well as patterns in the orthography. We will show, based on internal data supported by, but not dependent upon, the orthography that the language behind the QCT possessed a functional but reduced case system, in which cases marked by long vowels were retained, whereas those marked by short vowels were mostly lost. A place where the short case vowel appear to have been retained is in construct. -

Manden El Yazısının Kökeni 211 ARAMÎ DİLLERİN KADÎM İRAN BETİKLERİNE BAĞLI KÖKLERİ: MANDEN EL YAZISININ KÖKENİ Charles G. Häberl Çev.: Mehmet Sait TOPRAK ÖZET Günümüz Ortadoğu‟sunda bulunan herhangi bir başka el yazısına benzemeyen Irak ve İran‟daki Mandenlerce hâlâ kullanılan yegâne bitişik elyazısı, Mandenler‟in yazılı edebiyatının sırlı ve gizli kökenlerini aydınlatmada ve belir- gin bir şekilde farklı dinsel bir gelenek olarak ortaya çıkışlarına dair bir ipucu sağlayabilir. Mandenlerin bugün bulundukları bölgelerdeki antik elyazıları ile karşılaştırıldığında, Manden el yazısının, Partlılar döneminin son zamanlarının (ve son derece belirgin bir tarzda M.S. II. yüzyılın) bir ürünü olduğu, Anado- lu‟dan ve kuzeydeki Kafkasya‟ya, oradan güneydeki Mesene (Characene)‟ye ve Elam‟a yayılan bir grup el yazısıyla çok yakın benzerliklere sahip olduğu anlaşı- lır. Ki bu el yazılarının tamamının ya bunlardan türediği ya da büyük ölçüde Part devri resmi el yazısının tesirinde kaldığı görülür. Mandenler‟in son dönem Arsaklılar‟la bağlantısı, onların kendi söylenceleri ve metinsel gelenekleriyle teyid edilmiştir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Aramca, Partça, Manden el yazısı, ABSTRACT Iranian Scripts for Aramaic Languages: The Origin of the Mandaic Script The unique cursive script still employed by the Mandaeans of Iraq and Iran, which is unlike any other script found in the modern Middle East, may provide a clue to the obscure origins of their written literature and their emergence as a distinct religious tradition. Comparison with ancient scripts from the regions where the Mandaeans are found today indicates that the Mandaic script is a product of the late Parthian period (and more specifically the second century C.E.) and has its closest affinities with a group of scripts ranging from Anatolia and the Caucasus in the north to Characene and Elymais in the south, all of which appear to derive from or to be heavily influenced by the Parthian chancery script.The association of the Mandaeans with the later Arsacids is corroborated by their own legends and their textual tradition.
