Macdonald & Al-Najem (2016) commented: "The stone was in the Department of Antiquities collection at Taymāʾ in 1985 when it was photographed by William Facey. A large sandstone stele (66 x 51 x 18 cm) with a Taymanitic inscription deeply incised across the top of one of the broad faces. It is broken on the left edge with half of the last surviving letter missing. Not previously published".
