Interpretation

Commentary
Four Safaitic letters carved more or less vertically to the left of the beginning of MKTF 22. It is difficult to make any sense of them.

Provenance
At the top of one face of a large outcrop

Associated Drawings
There is a drawing of an ostrich between this text and MKTF 20 and a rather crudely hammered she-camel in the space between this text and MKTF 22.
