- DISCUSSION Hidalgo-Chacón Díez 2016: 128, for the theophoric element Ḏġbt.
- Commentary
- According to Sima (1999: 20), the inscription is in relief and consists of about 7 lines which cannot be read clearly. The carver put a word-divider between ʿbd and {ḏ}{ġ}{b}{t}, but this must be a mistake since it divides a theophoric name. No photograph or copy is available.
