Interpretation
- Commentary
- The inscription is carved on a limestone bowl with short handles at the base and (broken off) at the rim: diameter at the rim is 16 cms, at the base is 12 cms, and it is 9.5 cms high. It starts immediately to the left of the broken upper handle, running above Damascus Museum 21039.2 (AKSJ 1.2.1) and below the end of Damascus Museum 21039.6 (= AKSJ 1.1.1). It was clearly carved before Damascus Museum 20139.4 since the latter curves upwards to avoid it.
