Arabs prayed to Shams, the Sun God in Pre-Islam Arabia. Was Shams copied into Islam? | Ahmad Al-Jallad | MythVision

This might be one of the most important discoveries in the study of ancient Arabia in decades.

In this episode of MythVision, Dr. Ahmad Al-Jallad—one of the world’s leading experts on pre-Islamic Arabian languages—reveals how a mysterious script, undeciphered for over a century, was finally cracked… almost by accident.

What was once thought to be an impossible puzzle—lacking bilingual texts, context, and even a known language—has now opened a completely new window into the ancient world.

This breakthrough gives us access to:

- Lost languages of Arabia

- Ancient religious beliefs and deities

- Forgotten writing systems

- And an entirely new layer of human history


Even more fascinating: this script may represent one of the last undeciphered writing systems on Earth—until now.

From inscriptions hidden in caves in Oman to a discovery made mid-flight, this is a story that feels more like Indiana Jones than academia.

If you’re interested in ancient history, archaeology, religion, or lost civilizations… this is a conversation you can’t miss.
