[Footnote 100: The revolutions of Yemen in the sixth century
must be collected from Procopius, (Persic. l. i. c. 19, 20,)
Theophanes Byzant., (apud Phot. cod. lxiii. p. 80,) St.
Theophanes, (in Chronograph. p. 144, 145, 188, 189, 206,
207, who is full of strange blunders,) Pocock, (Specimen
Hist. Arab. p. 62, 65,) D'Herbelot, (Bibliot. Orientale, p.
12, 477,) and Sale's Preliminary Discourse and Koran, (c.
105.) The revolt of Abrahah is mentioned by Procopius; and
his fall, though clouded with miracles, is an historical
fact. ]
