Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
TRANSLATION van den Branden and Jamme: 'king of Dedan in Tīn'.
Commentary
The copy is of poor quality but it seems impossible to read the first letter as a m and the sixth as a n (cf. the last letter) as van den Branden and Jamme do. It is difficult to make sense of the copy.
