- TEXT Read as Safaitic in JMAA II p. 9-10 (= JaS 183). Harding & Littmann: l ʿs²wr w ḏkrt lt mrr w mʿ w rather than l qs²ṭ---- w ḏkrt lt mrʾ w mnʿt w s¹----. DISCUSSION- King (1990: 654) commented: "The first name is read ʿs²wr by TIJ. The letters qs²ṭ are clear on the photograph. They are followed by a proportionately large circle which I do not know how to interpret. The rest of the text is certain except for the continuation after the s¹ where the rock is damaged".
