Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
TEXT Jamme 1968: 47–48 reads JSLih 249 as two inscriptions, the first JSLih 249 a and JSLih 249b. TRANSLATION Jaussen & Savignac read 249.1 and 249.2 as one inscription with two personal names.
Commentary
As Caskel and Jamme recognized, JSLih 249 is two inscriptions, the first (JSLih 249.1) in tiny Minaic letters (see the form of the z) and the second (JSLih 249.2) in larger Dadanitic letters.
