According to French archaeologist Шаблон:Interlanguage link and biblical scholar Daniel E. Fleming, one possible origin for the title 'Amm or "Children of 'Amm" is speculated to have stemmed from a designation of an earlier group of people who worshiped 'Amm as a central god, with the name 'Amm simply being the title for a forgotten deity whose true designation was not known.[3] Though 'Amm was worshipped into the time of the Qataban kingdom.[2]
