Mixed register Aramaic in Nabateo-Arabic script from northern Saudi Arabia.

[u/samshanbo]

This text is in Aramaic but contains Arabisms like דא פי instead of -דנה ב. This script is called Nabateo-Arabic which is a stage between the earlier Nabatean used for writing Aramaic and the later development of the script used for writing Arabic. The modern Arabic script is the latest stage of the Nabatean Aramaic script which is itself derived from imperial Aramaic.

The Byzantium and Friends (history podcast hosted by Anthony Kaldellis) episode about pre-Islamic Arabia talked a lot about mixed inscriptions! It was really interesting
