Queen of Sheba

By , About.com GuideNovember 16, 2005

Follow me on:

The Queen of Sheba will be the first legend covered in the series starting Wednesday in Michael Woods' PBS Myths and Heroes. The Queen of Sheba is sometimes portrayed as overtly masculine and the daughter of a demon. She visited the Biblical King Solomon and may have converted from her polytheistic faith to the monotheism of Judaism in order to marry the king.

About's Ancient History guide N.S. Gill has provided this glossary entry for the Queen of Sheba, and an extensive discussion of her by Torrey Philemon of Ancient Sites.
