- MDT 3: l hʾs¹d bn ṣfwn bn ʾs¹ bn ʾlflḥ
- Commentary
- The published photograph is not adequate to check the readings of all the letters. The n of the second bn has been left out in the copy. The first l of the fourth name is not legible in the photograph and in the copy it is drawn as a straight line without a hook. The second l appears to have a hook which is not drawn in the copy. The dotted n's suggest that the script might be Hismaic and it is possible the last letter should be read as a ṭ and the name ʾlflṭ read or possibly ʾflṭ.
