Dhu Shanatir (Arabic: لحيعة ينوف ذو شناتر, romanized: Lahniʿah Yanuf Dhu Shanatir) also spelled Zu Shenatir, was a Himyarite king who ruled Yemen for 27 years. He was not from the royal family (Tubba').[2] He was known as "The Man with Earrings".[3]
He is known as one of the first-recorded serial killers.[4] He lured young boys from the royal family into his home with the promise of food and money,[5] stripped them naked and sodomized them. He then killed them by throwing them naked out of an upper-story window of his home. He was only stopped when Zara'h (Dhu Nuwas),[6] stabbed him.[7] Following his assassination, Dhu Shanatir's decapitated head was displayed from the palace window and Dhu Nawas assumed rulership of the Himyarite Kingdom.[8][9][10]
