Interpretation
- Apparatus Criticus
- NAID I p. 61: There are further lightly scratched letters. A further s¹ "between" the k/lam auctoris an l between the l and k of mlk a b between the k and b of bn and an n after the first bn. The author has made two errors the g of grmʾl has a tail and there is a l before the m of the third name which is probably the result of metathesis i.e. the author started to write lmk instead of mlk but realised his mistake in time to insert a second l in the correct position.
- Commentary
- A k has been added to the initial l to form a palindrome of the author 's name.
