Karibʾīl Watār Yahanʾm (Sabaean: 𐩫𐩧𐩨𐩱𐩡 𐩥𐩩𐩧 𐩺𐩠𐩬𐩲𐩣, romanized: Krbʾal wtr Yhn’m; fl. late 7th century BCE), sometimes distinguished as Karib'il Watar II, was probably the most important ruler of early Saba. He is sometimes regarded as the founder of the kingdom proper, as he was responsible for changing the ruler's title from mukarrib to malik.
