Ḫrb Mdh ʿḏrʿ

Language and Script
Dadanitic

Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
TEXT Jaussen & Savignac: ḍrb for ḫrb.
Commentary
The reading of the letter ḫ as ẓ or ṭ should not be excluded. Despite the lack of a word-divider between them, it is probable that mdh and ʿḏrʿ are separate names. If it was a compound name one would expect *mdhnʿḏrʿ.
