Yemen's Forgotten King: The Himyarite Emperor Who Conquered Persia
Om avsnittet
In this episode of The History of Yemen, Lucas and Luna explore the remarkable reign of Tubba' Abu Karib As'ad, the Himyarite king who not only unified much of Yemen but also launched military campaigns as far as Persia. We trace his rise from the highlands of Zafar to his conquests across the Arabian Peninsula, his encounter with the Sasanian Empire, and the legendary accounts of his conversion to Judaism. Along the way, we discuss the ancient city of Raydan, the Himyarite confederation, and the writings of Procopius that hint at Yemen's forgotten imperial moment. This episode offers a fresh look at a pre-Islamic power that Rome and Persia both courted.
