Dhat Ḥimyam is an ancient South Arabian goddess. She was one of the major deities of the Sabaean pantheon, attested since the earliest written documentation in Arabia and in the Ethio-Sabaean settlements. She was also worshipped in Ḥaḍramawt, where she was the patron goddess of two major temples at Raybūn. Her cult is sporadically attested in Qatabān as a protector of sanctuaries, while the few mentions in the Minaic corpus are all related to a Sabaean influence.
