Apparatus Criticus
TEXT Harding & Littmann do not read the end of the text. Read as Safaitic in Jamme 1971: 9-10 (= JaS 188). DISCUSSION King (1990: 654) commented: "The reading of the first name is clear, although it is difficult to explain. The words {b}n rm which do not appear in TIJ's copy are written down to the right of the rest of the text".
