Ta'lab

Ta'lab (تألب ريام) was a god worshipped in ancient Yemen, particularly by Sumʿay tribes. Ta'lab was the moon god and also a protector of pastures. The name Ta'lab means “goat”, an animal that was considered sacred by southern Arabs. Ta'lab’s oracle was consulted for advice. A shrine dedicated to him existed in Jabal Riyam in north Sana'a.
