- TRANSLATION van den Branden: 'By Ṣalam! Natan ha-Tinn, son of S²abbat'.
- Commentary
- van den Branden (1956: 53–54) takes Philby 279 ap 1 and 2 as a single text. However, it can be seen from the photographs of the Taymāʾ Hinterland Survey that they are separate inscriptions. Unfortunately, the survey photographs omitted the first two letters. Cf. JSTham 352 b ṣlm ntnt "By Ṣlm I gave".
- Provenance
- van den Branden (1956, ii: Table de Matières, E) assigns this inscription to Al-Khabū al-Sharqī, presumably on the basis of Philby's notes. However, the Taymāʾ Hinterland Survey recorded it at Waḍaḥā in 2013.
