Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
TEXT Line 1. Abū l-Ḥasan: ḏ- ḏbbt for ḏ- ḏġbt. Line 2. Abū l-Ḥasan: [ʾ]ṭll h- ṭll for [ʾ]ẓll h- ẓll. TRANSLATION Line 2. [ʾ]ẓll h- ẓll, Sima: '(she) covered the subterranean water-channel'. Line 4. Sima does not translate this line. DISCUSSION Hidalgo-Chacón Díez 2016: 128, for the divine name Ḏġbt.
Commentary
Line 4. The numeral in this line is difficult to interpret since it is neither preceded by the word for year nor followed by a noun.
