MDT 7: read with ḥ from MDT 8 and part of MD 7.1 ----bn tm bn ḥtl bn ḥgwn b
Commentary
It seems most likely that this text does not cotinue with the adjacent ḥ but probably on another face of the rock or on a piece of rock which has broken off. The dotted n's and possibly the shape of the ḥ suggest that the text might be Hismaic.
