Solomon & Sheba Inc.
A new inscription confirms trade relations between “towns of Judah” and South Arabia, Biblical Archaeology Review.
Southern Arabia is 1,200 miles south of Israel. The Bible documents this trade quite extensively—most famously in the supposed affair between King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba.
The land of Sheba is referred to two dozen times in the Hebrew Bible.
... the international trade between Judah and southern Arabia very probably existed as early as the latter half of the tenth century B.C.E.—the time of King Solomon.
