アブストラクトThis paper will explore some of the major contours of historic Muslim experiences with diverse forms of pre-Islamic cultural legacies. After some introduction to tropes from the Qur’an in which believers are prompted to reflect on the ruins of and re-tellings of stories from the ancient past, the discussion turns to specific examples of medieval and early modern encounters of Muslims with the remains of pre-Islamic civilizations with particular attention to the comparative cases of Egypt and Java. Exploring such historical vignettes presents an opportunity to critically reflect on a number of currently dominant assumptions about the ways in which Muslims regard the legacies of the pre-Islamic past. Given contemporary concerns over the destruction of heritage sites in Syria and elsewhere, these issues have a clear contemporary relevance that extends well beyond the boundaries of specialist scholarship in Islamic Area Studies.
