Language and Script
Safaitic

Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
SIJ 72: ʿm f (ʿ)m at the end.
Commentary
The text is lightly scratched next to SIJ 70. There is no sign of the phrase ʿm f ʿm either on the photograph or on Harding's copy and it seems probable that Thompson's copy T48a (in which it appears) is of another inscription.
