Al-Theeb also mentioned in statements to Al-Arabiya that the oldest discovery of Arabic inscriptions was found in a region of Palestine, specifically the city of Lachish. It was a Thamudic inscription dating back to 1300 BC. Initially, it was believed to be Phoenician, dating back to 1509 BC, but it was later determined to combine the Musnad script with Thamudic letters.
