Subject:another sa- sawfa query

the diachronic dimension:  is  /sawfa/  so overwhelmingly represented  
in pre-Islamic poetry to the point where we can definately say that,  
in the course of time (when??)  the abbreviated form  /sa-/  developed  
from it?
     Best wishes,
                                               Mike Schub
