| Info |
Qarnawu was presumably founded at the time the Minaean Kingdom appeared in about 500 BCE; after the end of Sabaean rule over Ma’in in about 400 BCE Qarnawu became the capital of Ma'in for a time. At the end of the Minaean Kingdom in the 1st century BCE, Qarnawu lost its importance, and was probably abandoned not long after. |
