Son jumeau est conservé au musée de La Valette, à Malte : les deux pièces y sont connues depuis la fin du xvii e siècle et l'une d'entre elles a été offerte à la France par le grand maître de l'ordre de Malte. Célèbres en raison de l'inscription bilingue, en phénicien et en grec, gravée sur l'une des quatre faces de leur socle, ces deux « inscriptions » permirent à l'abbé Barthélémy de déchiffrer le phénicien en 1758. La présente étude croise données archéologiques, historiographiques et épigraphiques, afin de décrypter ces deux oeuvres atypiques dans leurs moindres détails et d'explorer un certain nombre de questions concernant notamment leur typologie et leur usage, mais aussi leur datation, leur provenance et leur histoire depuis l'Antiquité jusqu'à nos jours.

so-called Darb al-Bakrah, an ancient north–south caravan track
connecting Hegra with Petra. The inscriptions were found at
a number of sites along the track. They are carved in a variety
of scripts and languages, among which are Imperial Aramaic,
Nabataean, Nabataeo-Arabic, Palmyrene, Ancient South Arabian,
Ancient North Arabian (Taymanitic, Dadanitic, Hismaic, Safaitic,
Thamudic B, C, and D, etc.), and Greek. The Arabic inscriptions
and the rock drawings will be published in separate volumes.
The inscriptions are edited by six scholars specialised in the history
and epigraphy of ancient Arabia.

While its size and its massive body are impressive enough to attract attention, its interest is mainly epigraphic: exceptional in its length as in the magnitude of the historical information it contains, the script of the inscription engraved on this sarcophagus was considered the classic form of Phoenician writing.
This book invites the reader to discover it according to several axes: epigraphic, historical, stylistic and historiographical. It shows how the sarcophagus of Eshmunazor, like that of his father Tabnit, is so important to understand the development and evolution of Phoenician art.
