 Morey argues that the same name of God of Islam, Arabic "Allah", was an epithet of Hubal's in pre-Islamic Mecca.He also cites a 1950s era archeological excavation in Hazor, Israel, in what was ancient Galilee, in which a decapitated male statue was unearthed which some archaeologists thought might be Hubal.Morley claims that this provides that moon worship existed in Arabia.
