Seminar for Arabian Studies
Thank you to all speakers and participants in the 54th Seminar for Arabian Studies! We had a fantastic seminar, and can’t wait to see you all next year, hopefully in Berlin and online!
And it was extra special as we were joined by our Patron, Professor Valeria Piacentini.
شكرا لجميع المتحدثين والمشاركين في الندوة الرابعة والخمسين للدراسات العربية! لقد عقدنا ندوة رائعة ، ولايمكننا الانتظار لرؤيتكم جميعًا العام المقبل ، ونأمل أن تكون اللقاء في برلين وعلى الإنترنت!
وكان الأمر مميزًا للغاية حيث انضم إلينا راعينا البروفيسور فاليريا بياسينتيني.

A Viking-era ring inscribed with the words 'for Allah', found in the grave of a woman who was buried 1200 years ago in Birka, 25 km west of modern-day Stockholm. The ring constitutes unique material evidence of direct contact between the Vikings and the Abbasid Caliphate.
A stunning juxtaposition, both amazing images in different ways. https://twitter.com/riyazyamish/status/1416650733227630594
