Interpretation
- Commentary
- Photograph only. The rock has laminated just above the third letter making it look like a z and there is a chip immediately after it which looks like a ʿ. A letter has been carefully scraped over just before k- s¹ʿd -h. This seems to be the first occasion
- Provenance
- Approximately 300 m south of Biʾr al-Ruṣayʿī, on top of a hill. A number of elaborate Ahl al-Jabal graves with "wings", one with a desert mosque attached.
