The differences in opinion in the genealogy for some reference material is due to the manner in which the information was presented orally prior to its writing. It is interesting that the version presented by the Islamic sources is far more data-oriented when compared to the views of Orientalists like Cornellius and his contemporaries who focus on Ishmael and his descendants alone. In fact, many secondary sources have supported the Islamic revelation in that Adam and Eve were the first people to inhabit the earth. However, for some it is considered merely a matter of myth and legends that are based only on oral history, and this view is incorrect. Arab sources have confirmed that the existence of their nation dates back to the time of Abraham. Clearly, such information is no fiction. Moreover, this statement indirectly reveals that the Arabic language has existed for a long time, since the emergence of the proto-Arabs themselves. According to linguists, Saba`, Yemen is among the earliest places in which this language appears.
