Abstract This short contribution presents three new Safaitic texts that shed further light on the division of the year among the pre-Islamic nomads of the Syro-Arabian Ḥarrah. The inscriptions demonstrate that the zodiac sign names could be used as the names of months and open a new avenue of discussion regarding the meanings of the terms rʾy and ksʾ.
