Abstract
Anyone who reads the details of the journey undertaken by the orientalist Julius Euting to the northern part of the Arabian Peninsula-lasting approximately eight months-will recognize its significance. The journey was carried out with clearly defined objectives, under specific conditions, and aimed at producing deliberate outcomes, most notably the reproduction of inscriptions and epigraphic monuments that are abundant in the northern Arabian Peninsula.
This endeavor deeply influenced Euting’s thinking and scholarly approach, marking a significant turning point in his life thereafter.
Accordingly, this study, entitled "Archaeological Sites in the Arabian Peninsula through the Journey of the German Julius Euting (1300–1301 AH/1883–1884 CE)," seeks to shed light on the circumstances, motivations, objectives, and course of this journey, through the following sections:
· Introduction and overview of the topic
· Preface: A biography of Julius Euting, including his upbringing and education
· Chapter One: The journey’s context, reasons, and duration
· Chapter Two: The archaeological sites he visited and his recorded observations.
· Chapter Three: The outcomes of his expedition to northern Arabia.
· Conclusion: Key findings and recommendations
· Appendices and indexes.
