Abstract: (arabic)
يعتمد نمط الاستيطان للمدن على عدة عوامل منها التضاريس والمناخ والمواد المتوفرة والتعبير الحضاري والثقافي للمجتمع، وما يهمنا في هذا الصدد هو عامل التعبير الحضاري والثقافي. يتناول هذا البحث المدينة في اليمن القديم خلال فترة حكم الممالك وذلك منذ بداية الألف الأول ق.م وحتى قيام مملكة حمير في المناطق الجبلية الوسطى. ويهدف البحث الى التعرف على العلاقة بين المعتقدات الدينية للمجتمع وتأثيرها على العمارة والعمران المدني، وعليه فقد تم طرح اطار نظري يوضح العلاقة بين المعتقدات والعملية البنائية، ثم تطبيقه على العمارة المدنية، من خلال انتخاب نماذج معينة للمدن اليمنية القديمة لكل مملكة. وقد خلص البحث إلى نتائج عامة حول العمران المدني في تلك الحقبة، اضافة الى معرفة قوة العلاقة بين المعتقدات الدينية والنتاج البنائي.
