First language springs

Is it possible to reach a chronological chart of the development of the Arabic language? And is it true that the age of Arabic poetry does not exceed two centuries before Islam? Did the Arabs not leave behind an epic oral heritage that can be compared to the Epic of Gilgamesh or the Iliad or the Odyssey? Was he not given the opportunity to write? The book "Sources of the First Language" answers these questions by attempting to draw a chronological chart of the development of the Arabic language, based on inscriptions since the early first millennium BC, and explores the possibility that Thamudic, Sabaic, and Nabataean inscriptions contain poetic texts. It also highlights the role played by the foundational era of Al-Hirah in shaping pre-Islamic literary concepts, ending in the final chapter with a comparison between pre-Islamic storytelling tales and a lost Arab epic model.
