Sumuhu'ali Yanuf I.
Sumuhu'ali Yanuf I. ( Sabaean s 1 mhʿly Ynf S 1 umuʿalī Yanūf), son of Yada'il Dharih , was a ruler ( Mukarrib ) of the old South Arabian empire Saba . Hermann von Wissmann continued his reign around 660 BC. BC, Kenneth A. Kitchen, however, around 470–455 BC. Chr.
Sumuhu'ali Yanuf I is mentioned in three inscriptions. In one of them, which comes from a rock 8 km south of Marib , only the name of the ruler and the invocation of the Sabaean gods triad have been preserved. Another inscription comes from a building in Naschq and names Sumuhu'ali Yanuf I as the client. The longest inscription that mentions it, however, is a pompous stele decorated with ibex reliefs from the sanctuary at Jabal al-Laudh at the northeast end of the Jauf . Sumuhu'ali Yanuf's successor cannot be determined with certainty
